Dora Says My Father Talked to Wilson
Dear Readers,
My father talked to President Woodrow Wilson. Why? Just listen.
My mother realized that we had to leave for England within the week if we were to arrive in time for the December 22 wedding. And yet we had not heard from Edward. My father got tired of hearing weeping and screaming women. So he called Wilson. He told him he was a passenger aboard the Lusitania and a prominent Pittsburgh businessman. He asked how to track down Lieutenant Ware and T. E. Lawrence. Wilson suggested he call the British ambassador. Finally we found out that Lawrence and Ware were both sent on a secret mission. I asked the ambassador if Edward would be back for Christmas. The man said he was sorry. Edward would not be back until the end of the war.
Sincerely yours,
Dora Benley
P.S. You can read all about my adventures in the first volume of my memoirs, King Abdullah's Tomb.
