Dora Says Edward Has Written Me About How Prince Feisal Makes Coffee
Dear Readers,
Edward has written me from the camp of Lawrence of Arabia describing how Prince Feisal makes coffee. Apparenlty in the desert to say he makes coffee all day long is the same as saying that he is very hospitable. And manners in the desert requires him to crush the coffee beans himself.
Edward seems to do a variety of things as Lawrence's adjutant. He not only keeps track of his mail. He acts as a personal secretary and boy Friday. He also attends banquets and feasts with his commander --- that is when he is not planting tulip bombs to blow up Turkish railroads!
After describing all these things Edward writes me that he wants me to send him something of mine to remember me by. He is very lonesome for me. There are no women around anywhere --- just a trader named Mohamed who provides cigars for Sidi Lawrence in return for Lawrence's antique humidor.
Sincerely yours,
Dora Benley
P.S. Edward sounds as if he's having more fun than I had on the Lusitania, that's for sure!
