Dearest Robin,

I am sorry to not have written for so long, but a great many things have been happening and only now have I had time to write to you about everything. I hope you are well and happy as you should be when this reaches you.

Father has passed away. I think this will encourage both John and Daphne to be married, which means I might be able to do the same myself. There are several gentlemen that I know who I might not mind spending the rest of my days with, but I worry that I will grow bored of them before they realise what a lovely young lady I am and bother to propose.

I envy you at times, my dear friend, because I imagine your life is far more interesting than my own. Despite any gossip that I might create or overhear, my entertainments are in short supply recently. The one highlight I can think of was the meeting of a gentleman at my father’s funeral. Mr. Brinsley is an American, from what I can tell of his manner of speaking, and I have also gathered that he is an MP, though he acts as a man who is carefree and defined by his own whims instead of politics. We had a lovely conversation in which we came up with a clever plan to make my sister truly happy. I shall not reveal the details here, lest our fabulous scheme fail. If it does come to fruition, however, be assured that I will share all details of the matter with you!

I may find myself in London sometime this summer if all goes according to plan. We shall have to see one another, if that is the case, as it has been far too long.

Please write back to me and tell me how you have been and anything exciting that has happened to you. I should like to live your own adventures through reading about them if you will let me.

Your friend,
Ella

Dear Ella
Your letter found me in a time of great need for comfort. I am afraid I am quite ill, possibly with a cold, and completely bored. I do not think it is serious, but it has certainly knocked me out and I'm unable to work until I become better.

I am so sorry to hear about your father, yet glad you have found a
partner in crime to take your mind off things. I am sure you have many men fawning over you this very minute, it is just a shame nobody
continues to hold your interest. Perhaps the American is a better match for you? He sounds funny enough and respectable, and you do not seem to be bored of him at the moment. Your sister is not happy? Whyever not?

My life is certainly not the wonderous world you believe it to be. It is dark and sometimes dangerous, not all thrills and spills. I work hard for my money, though I admit the plays we are rehearsing are quite fun to do! When I am well...

I would of course adore to meet you in London. I will have to try and get myself some more adventures - or just one! for I have not really had many wonderous things to account to you. If you come here in Summer perhaps we might find some of our own.

Keep well, Ella, and I hope to hear from you soon.
Robin

Dearest Robin,

I am terribly sorry to hear of your illness and wish you the fastest recovery! I cannot think of anything so dreadful as being ill. You must let me know as soon as you are well again! Are you being taken care of until you recover? If you are not being looked after I will come to London right away!

It is true that I am quite fond of Mr. Brinsley already, though I hardly know him. And as for my sister’s happiness, I am unsure. She is still mourning our father and it is diffuclt to tell how happy she is romantically. She has grown close to Doctor Perkins, he lives in London actually, and I daresay they might be in love with one another. But matters of the heart are so very complicated and I feel that she still misses her first love, who was supposedly executed in France. It is terribly tragic and her heart has suffered greatly for it. I am certain that with time she would become happy again on her own, but as her sister I feel it is my duty to help that happiness along in whatever way possible!

Even though it is less than proper for me to say, I find that danger is quite exciting. Of course this is only so long as the danger remains only a danger, and does not turn into harm. I am delighted to hear that you are practicing a play. I would think that acting would be very freeing, since you are not having to be yourself.

I am sure that we could find some sort of adventure when I am able to visit. London is such a brilliant city, full of every type of person and thing imaginable. When I do marry, I must marry a city man so that I never have to be stuck in the country unless I desire it.

Wishing you a fast recovery,
Ella
