- (continued from previous page)The man was buried and Mary Anne was very sorrowful, she lived alone for a month then one morning she got a very surpriseful letter stating that her father was coming home in a week. When the man came home he told her the whole story.
There was a ,man in the hospital of the same name as mine and he died and the letter was sent to you".
