The only speculation is whether (Mrs Dixon) went down south specificaly for that purpose, which seems most likey, given her motherly nature

Hadn't she been Mrs Callum's nurse years before? That concept of personal service was very strong then; I'm sure that going down to London to accompany them back would have been reasonable for the time. Especially as they hadn't made the journey before, and a lot of it would have been in the dark.
