Dora Says I Bet Edward Regrets Breaking Off Our Engagement

Dear Readers,

I bet Edward regrets breaking off our engagement. I remember when I last saw him. He gave me my Crusader engagement ring to remember him by. He clung to me at the dock at Liverpool in late May, 1915 when he was shipping off to the Dardanelles. He took me aside into a crowd so he could kiss me. I really got the idea he did not want to do without me.

He has written so many letters to me! Who will he write to if he has no fiance? It must have been in a moment of despair that he wrote those fatal words, "I must break off our engagement." In fact, didn't he say he was breaking it off not because he didn't love me but because he did?

I must go to him. That is the only way to convince him of his error. After all, he was not on the Lusitania and does not think like a Lusitania survivor.

Sincerely yours,

Dora Benley
