Miss Griffith

In the novel A Pocket Full of Rye, Miss Griffith is the head typist at the offices of Consolidated Investments Trust, the company headed by Rex Fortescue. She is described as a "grey-haired martinet". At the time of the events of the novel, she had been working at Consolidated Investments Trust for sixteen years.

At the beginning of the novel, when Rex is suddenly taken ill, she calls his doctor, Sir Edwin Sandeman. She also instructs the office boy to go out and find a doctor.

When Inspector Neele arrives, he identifies Miss Griffith as the most suitable person to give him a succinct account of what had happened.
