Dear Mr Parry,
My colleague Miss Hargreaves has pointed out to me that your incommunicado ‘survival year’ may in fact be a euphemism for your disinclination to communicate with me and indeed your intention to force me to be the one to break off our engagement. If our agreement to marry has truly become burdensome to you and you do wish to part, I beg that you will send me word to that effect. I will not waste my salad years pining over a man who would rather fish for a year than write letters.
Yours sincerely,
Felicitas Ungrave
