Mrs. Hubbard claims that the murderer was in her compartment the night M. Ratchett was killed. She explains that even though it was dark, she woke up startled and knew he was in there. However, rather than trying to capture the intruder, Mrs. Hubbard rang her bell (used to call service) multiple times. When service came, lights were open and no one was to be seen. Mrs. Hubbard also found a button in one of her bags, which she claims belongs to one of the wagon attendants. Also, she adds on to say that there was the sound of a women's voice in M. Ratchett's place during the middle of the night. Mrs. Hubbard believes that voice belonged to a possible suspect.
