Reuben is well. News here remains very much the same. I think I could love Paris if not for missing home. We're hoping a house will be secured for us by April.

Have you had any further letters from your mysterious beau's? What details have they shared about themselves? I love puzzles, as I'm sure you remember. I look forward to helping you make sense of who they are. Do you have a copy of their original advertisement? Perhaps there are some hints there.
