My dear Miss Em'ly,

  My ending to your story, I submit, is already a happy one.  What you are
doing in California I cannot say.  I sent you to Australia with your beloved
uncle.  All that is required is that you live a life of blameless chastity,
not too much to ask, surely?


Faithfully yours,


Charles Dickens
