landlady

His landlady/sometime girlfriend sued him, saying that they had agreed to split the winnings.

The landlady had related the tragic history of the dead mother and the invalid aunt.

He returned to the hotel, and, eluding a gossip-seeking landlady, went up to his room.

The landlady also came tripping towards us, and invited us, in a very friendly manner, to spend the next Sunday with them.

When we returned to the Castle Inn, we found the landlady all attention and she spared no effort to contribute to our comfort.

The landlady, clad in a low-necked black dress with long sweeping train, was typical of many we saw in the old-country hotels.
