Victoria is still at it. I rushed to transcribe April to see if I could get some resolution to what this Angel Speaker is up to. Not yet, but Babu is holding on to both her intrigue and belief, despite warnings. Tuesday, March 3rd, 1936 Got a letter from Veronica. She told me of all…

March 1936 – The Great Flood Excerpts
Thursday, March 12th, 1936 It’s been raining all week so far. If the river doesn’t stop rising conditions are going to become drastic. Havoc has already been done in some places.

Now in January 1936 she is eighteen years old, attending a college secretarial program, rarely mentions Drobey anymore but is still pining for W.B.Z. She is without a steady boyfriend and it’s shocking to me. Her children…
