Sent to Paul:
A small boxed package and a note, inscribed on the envelope: ' For Doctor Roberts, Please read first, yours always, J'
The note reads:
"My darling Ascendant,
Our day draws closer still, and there is such a mixture of joy and excitement inside me, it feels like there are creatures turning somersaults in my body!
Enclosed in the box is an an item I'd love for you to accept, as a token of our love, and of my commitment to you. It's a locket passed down through my family from my Mother, and it came to me when she passed. I'd like for it and it's contents within to be yours, and I pray you'll accept my gift.
I've enclosed within it a small lock of my hair, tied with the purple ribbon you seemed to like, and a small portrait of myself painted in minature by the local artist Ms Morgan.
I've included a watch chain, purchased through my meager wages, that you may easier wear it about your person, and it would indeed be my wish that that should become your practice. I would derive great pleasure from that knowledge Paul, a great deal.
All my love and adoration,
Always your Beloved,
James'
The box contains the large sized gold locket, and the watch chain as mentioned in the note. Inscribed in looping script on the back of the locket is the phrase:
'Always yours, J"
