course, the baby has pulled
me down in flesh until
I am quite thin.

Well, it does seem as if fate
is determined to throw Pall
in your way. What will
the final ending be? Can you
tell?

Well now, you wanted a newsy
letter and I think you have
it and I wrote it all the

late hours. Wishing you
a Merry Christmas.

I am as ever,
your cousin,
Alice Pike
