Letter
Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths
1938

Griff recounts following the movements of a very suspicious character around Lapwing Lane where Ida lives. Reckons he was confused as to a meeting point for the woman he saw him with shortly after. He wonders that the post office corner of Lapwing Lane where he often meets Ida "appears to be a curious place of meeting and I can't think why (other) people choose it. Not the first time I've seen anxious-looking people dodging about."
He even reckons he caught out someone he knows in an affair when he saw him walk arm in arm with a woman not his wife. But, "being a keen student of the Modern Novel I didn't bother."
He wishes for long walks with her but doesn't want to fret his mum if he's not home for tea.
