9th February Dear White, Yet again, I have been forced to suffer infidelity. Kelly has betrayed my trust a second and third time. My mind is in an appalling state of disorder at present, for I am scarcely recovered from the tumultuous events of the last year. Of late is seems she does not care for me and acts upon her every sordid whim. Why, only last week she told me tales of drinking and carousing with friends. Jealousy has found a home in my heart, and the scorn for those with whom she associates will not leave me. Whatever am I to do? I so wish for your advice in these matters, White, for you are all I seem to have left in this world of imprudence and deceit. [remainder obliterated]
