Dear sir, you were once very kind to Bo
and myself, and it pains me to ask you to
show us further kindness, but I have
nowhere else to turn and nobody else
upon whom I can impose. I will, of
course, pay you handsomely for your
troubles. My family have turned quite mad
and are threatening to send me away to
stop my work, which they say is
disgracing them, as if their history of
absolute moral depravity, utter
debauchery, and perpetual drunkenness did
not disgrace them enough. I must escape,
yet I am kept prisoner here. Can you help?
Most days I am to be found at the cabins
on the plantation; the main house and all
it stood for are, thankfully, no more.
Yours faithfully, Penelope Braithwaite.
And beautiful night.

Oh, you came! You came! You finally came!
Okay, thank you, thank you, you lovely,
lovely man. Oh, calm down, yes.
Oh, come on, let's go. We ain't got a
minute to lose. They killed her.
They killed Miss Calhoun. All she wanted
was a better life for women, and they
killed her. Those pigs killed her. I don't
know, my cousins probably, or for Bo's...
huh?
You met them. They're animals, not even
animals, monsters, monsters. It got, it
lost all his powers of imagination. Can
you, can you please take me to the train
station?
Bo'll be waitin'. Well, why couldn't he come
and rescue you? Well, if he saw me and him
together, they'd lynch him and send me
off to a nunnery, or maybe they'd lynch
