Have You Seen Edward With Another Girl?

Dear Readers,
Have you seen Edward with another girl? You say you don't know what he looks like? He's six feet tall with curly red hair, freckles and bright green eyes. He's got quite a build with big shoulders tapering to his waist and long legs. He's twenty-two years old. If you see a man who meets that description and he's handsome, it's probably my fiance.

I'm not sure whether I can trust him. After all, he was quite artful and persistent about seducing me. I wonder where he got all the practice. It's hard to believe I was the first. And what a young man has done once, he will probably do again. All he needs is an opportunity.

I don't like him being off in the army in the Dardanelles. I would rather have Edward where I can watch him. It doesn't matter whether it's at Ware House or back in Pittsburgh where I grew up. I just need him near me, especially after the Lusitania which has shaken my confidence somewhat.

Sincerely yours,

Dora Benley
