Jerry's letter to Emma
|
Dear Emma I've been talking to John. He came to visit me on his own and it quite touched me. I'll be out soon and I hope the boy and I can be mates. I'd like to buy him a beer at the Idiot. Seems like the least I can do. We talked about you. I said how nice you've been and I think he's quite sweet on you! Thing is, I'm a little bit worried. Now you mustn't take offence, it's just that I'd not want the lad to get hurt. So, you do care for him, don't you? I mean, seems to me he could be in line for a bit of an inheritance if we prove that he's Monty's grandson. Sorry if I'm out of order asking, but the people I mix with these days do leave you with a bit of a suspicious mind, most of them being crooks and all. Yours faithfully, Gerald Anderson (Jerry) |
