Excuse me if someone mentioned this already, as I just picked up this 
thread.  There is a Perry Mason novel, which I believe is called 
"The Case of the Drowning Duck", that was written in the 1930's,
I think.  Perry enters an apartment where a murder took place,
and a duck is drowned in the bathtub (as I recall!).  Anyway, the 
reason is finally given as detergent, a brand new item at the time,
and I have no recollection of its relevance (though it had such)
to the murder case.
