These are among the most recently unsent letters, there have been more previously:
I don't know why I have not heard of you, though I'm sure you wonder why you have not heard from me. I'm scared that father will see these letters and be so angry. I miss you more than you could imagine. Is Mr. Crouch treating you well? Are you two happy? I'm nervous of next season. Mostly if father will let me even have one! I don't blame you Mel. I just wish -
With Love Care,
Miss Dorothy Finch
I just want to know that you are OK. Please send word soon. I can't stand this silence.
With Love Care,
Miss Dorothy Finch
My coming out ball approaches with every passing day. Please be there. I don't care what mother and father say. Mother has not talked about having a private coming out ball for once I graduate. I doubt one will occur.
With Love Care,
Miss Dorothy Finch
Please divorce him. I'm sure society would understand. Perhaps mother and father would even allow you to come back home. I know it's selfish, but I miss you so much.
With Love Care,
Miss Dorothy Finch

Will we ever see each other again? I miss you so much. I know what everyone else thinks, but we are sisters. Who could blame me for wanting to see you again?
