Miss Honey had in fact been the rightful owner of a property on the edge of the village known as The Red House,
which until recently had been occupied by a Miss Agatha Trunchbull.
The will also showed that her father's lifetime savings, which fortunately were still safely in the bank, had also been left to her.
The solicitor's letter added that if Miss Honey would kindly call in to the office as soon as possible,
then the property and the money could be transferred into her name very rapidly.
Miss Honey did just that, and within a couple of weeks she had moved into The Red House,
the very place in which she had been brought up and where luckily all the family furniture and pictures were still around.
From then on, Matilda was a welcome visitor to The Red House every single evening after school,
and a very close friendship began to develop between the teacher and the small child.
Back at school, great changes were also taking place.
As soon as it became clear that Miss Trunchbull had completely disappeared from the scene,
the excellent Mr Trilby was appointed Head Teacher in her place.
