What Should I Do If Edward Finds Another Girl?
Dear Readers,
If Edward balks at coming back to marry me at Christmas or gets engaged to someone else, I can always try to make him jealous. After all, Mr. Byrne has a crush on me. I could pretend I was dating him. That ought to get Edward angry. He is the possessive type.
On the ship on the way back to America in June, 1915, Mr. Byrne took me to his cabin and asked me how I felt about him. I told him the truth. I thought he was a friend, but I don't feel about him the way I feel about Edward. But Edward doesn't have to know that. I could tell him that Mr. Byrne has proposed and I have accepted. Edward is thousands of miles away in Gallipoli. Mr. Byrne is on the same ship.
Edward will think twice about jilting me. We Lusitania survivors don't give up.
Sincerely yours,
Dora Benley
