In total, there are twenty-four letters from the person who calls himself 'T '. I know because I poured over the contents of each one, horrified by every threat he had made to my mother. The closer the letters get to the current date, the more graphic and disturbing the subjects are. He 's getting angrier, whoever this person is. The key pieces from all of the letters include Mom betraying him in some way. They also mention things about loving her so much, but I know it isn 't my father. My father 's name is Dean Larkin. The person who wrote these letters has a 'T ' somewhere in their name, at least, I predict they do. The only problem with that is, who could this person be? And why are they hurting Mom like this? One thing I know for certain is, 'T ' has to be my stalker. I don’t think Mom and I would have different people threatening each of us at the same time, there’s just no way. After reading through the letters, I had put them back under Mom 's mattress so she won 't suspect that I know about them. Is this what she 's been hiding from me? She knows who my stalker is, even though she won 't admit it. You 'd think she 'd at least tell the police the guy 's name for my sake, but no. Nothing of the sort has been mentioned, well, at least not when I’m around. I 'm tempted on confronting Mom about the letters, but I know that even if I do, she won 't tell me anything different than she has been the whole two months we’ve been here. I can tell by the way she
He didn’t think much of these letters until his dog was shot in the leg. He reported this to the police, but nothing ever became of it. In June of 1977, Jack and Nann Cassara got a get-well card from a man named Sam Carr. They had no idea who this man was, or why he was sending them a get well card. An investigative technique officer used on these letters was matching the handwriting. The handwriting from the threatening letters, sent to Carr, and the card sent to the Cassara’s matched. Eventually, the handwriting from the letters to police and newspapers, plus the few letters the Son of Sam wrote to Sam Carr and Jack and Nann Cassara were all determined to be from the same
Chapter 6 - “Oh, I do hope he is not ill. He surely would have written. I look at that last letter of his, but somehow it does not satisfy me. It does not read like him, and yet it is his writing. “ PG. 74
How have you been? I hope life is going well. How is mom doing? Are you and her eating and sleeping well? I want to be very honest in this letter. Please do not tell mother what I am about to tell you. I don’t want to worry her. I don’t want to worry you too but you’re stronger than mom. What I am about to tell you please take it into consideration but also don’t worry as much.
Stalker: I said shut up and be quiet! Otherwise I’m going to have to hurt you!

I think you should really think about what you are doing. In the meantime, I don't know if I want to keep exchanging letters because I just don't want to hear about it. Maybe one day I will trust you again.
In expressing his feelings only in the form of writing letters (and never sending them) Thomas perpetuates his own inability to communicate deep feelings by allowing himself to retreat further into his own mind while still maintaining the comfort of feeling like he has someone to confide in. These letters are merely a physical manifestation of his deeply internalized emotions, and although they bring him some level of comfort, they keep him locked inside himself and hinder his ability to connect. That being said, these letters give Thomas an outlet to express and cope with his pain, and if the pain is the root of his inability to communicate, these letters should improve his communication skills and help him connect. However, Thomas doesn’t use these letters to reflect and heal- he dwells, and himself into a bitter, almost masochistic state of nostalgia. The letters do not lead him towards closure, but rather give him a place to obsess over to dwell on his pain and misfortune. In the end, Thomas connects with his grandson, Oskar, and manages to find a certain level of peace in burying the letters in his son’s empty
“Papa, whats wrong?... he handed her the letter and her hands began to shake as she made her way through it” (pg. 417). The look on her papas face said enough about the truths she read in the letter. Her curiosity did end well for her this time and her fears now became reality. Both Rosa and Liesel faced the consequences of their curiosity which lead to one of their loved ones being away from
Ted was feeling resentment towards his mother for lying about who his parents was, and for finding out by his cousin instead of her.
Mr. Ewell - Mr. Gilmer is asking me questions, He wants me to tell them what happened, I stood up and screamed “I seen that black nigger yonder ruttin’ on my Mayella!” I feel so good now. The Judge just told me to keep my testimony in Christian English. Who does he think he is? The Judge is now asking me questions. I answered him and quickly left the stand and I ran right into Atticus. He told me he wanted to ask me questions and I have to go back to the witness stand. He is probably going to ask me something stupid. He is asking if I heard Mr. Tate’s testimony. I guess that is ok to say yes. He wants to know what eye was bruised on Mayelle. I keep telling him I agree with what Mr. Tate stated. He said her left eye. Now he is asking me to write my name. He is saying I am left handed. He is just asking it over and over again. I think he is catching on to me. I will just stick to my story. Ok, I am done. He is calling Mayella. She needs to keep telling my story. I hope she does not snap under the pressure. She is crying on the stand. If she keeps to the plan we will finally get rid of that stupid negro. Atticus is about to lose. There is no way the jury will say a black guy is innocent. He will pay for what he did to Mayella. Atticus will pay for trying to protect Tom. The jury thought for longer than they should have. They are back now, what have they decided. Tom was found guilty!! Now he is in jail, I won. I saw Atticus at the post office and spat in his face
They all had the same date and had Alex Baker written in the top right corner. My heart tightened as my shaking hands grabbed the first letter, worried of what was written inside. As I sliced open the first letter a piece of small lined paper was inside, it
I have been haunted by some of the letters I receive, especially lately. Some people send letters that I respond to but I never hear back. Some write back and update me on how they’re doing (both good and bad). And still others — ones like this — get under my skin. I’m angry and saddened; I’ve actually cried for this young man whom I have never met, and I’ve felt his pain and the pain of the parents and loved ones who had to bury him this
you walk on your brain or set on it, I thought my Podiatrist, would have
The letters continue and it is about him being lonely and feeling out of place. However he promises to keep in touch with his sister and that he misses her greatly. Robert later encounters a man who is stranded at sea and they pull him aboard. Robert takes care of him and it takes two days before the person can speak to finally say a word to Robert. This person was no other than Victor Frankenstein and he would only speak to Robert.
I used to hear stories about how my mom fell in love with lots of guys. I never really believed them because I could only ever imagine her with Dad until one day when I was rummaging through the attic of our old barn. As I was looking through boxes, which were usually filled with art history, war, and nonfiction books, I found a brown leather bound journal. It was a beautiful book with a little lock on it. I figured it must've been from when my mom was younger because she was the only one in this family that liked to write. To my dismay, the book was closed and the key was nowhere to be found. I considered asking mom if she has a key, but I didn't know if she would get mad at me for looking through her stuff or not. I put the Journal aside and started looking through some of the other boxes in hopes of finding the key. I found so many things such as an old Bible, three foreign language dictionaries French, German,
