Maggie was an elderly British woman who acted as the Thames Tunnel's mother during the 19th century in London.
Biography
Similar to others who live in the tunnel, Maggie was a beggar and not much was known about her past. Sometime in the mid-19th century, she was being beaten by five men in the Marylebone Church when the Assassin Jayadeep Mir, who was working undercover as Bharat Singh, witnessed the act of violence and saved Maggie from her attackers. From then on, Maggie joined Jayadeep's home in the Thames Tunnel and became a mother and a helper to those in need.
Maggie and Jayadeep stayed in the last alcove of the tunnel and looked after each other. The Assassin brought home food and money and taught Maggie to read at night by the light of candles. In return, Maggie served as Jayadeep's guide. By 1862, the old woman had already befriended the tunnel dwellers Charlie and Jake who she gave food to.
