Did Mrs. Dilber steal the blankets from Scrooge's dead body?
1) True
2) False

Answer 1

Yes, Mrs. Dilber does steal blankets from Scrooge's dead body in Charles Dickens' 'A Christmas Carol.'

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that Mrs. Dilber stole the blankets from Scrooge's dead body is indeed true.

This incident is depicted in Charles Dickens' famous novella, A Christmas Carol, in which the ghost of the Christmas Yet to Come shows Ebenezer Scrooge as a scene where a charwoman, laundress, and the undertaker's assistant are the selling items they have stolen from Scrooge after his death.

Mrs. Dilber is one among them and is shown to have taken the bedding and clothing from Scrooge's room.
