To my beloved sister Eleanor Olivia Whitesmith,
Hello my dear sister Ellie. How are you doing these days? I do hope you are doing fine, at least better than I am. My dear sister I am writing to you because for these past days I have had no head to think about anything other than my current situation. The news I just learned have been eating away everything within me. I feel no desire to nourish myself and my sleep escapes my body when I try to rest. I didn’t know who else to consult other than you my dear Ellie. My husband Lee Fu failed to inform me upon marring that he was married in his native China to his wife Mei Fu. Together they have two children, Li Li Fu, who is 9 years of age and Li Jun Fu, who is 12 years of age.

You see, I am in no position to contradict his decision into bringing his first family into my house because more than myself, my children depend greatly from him, and as you may know interracial marriages not socially acceptable. Coming from Irish decent and marring a Chinese laborer, puts us at the bottom of the social norm. My children are able to attend to very decent school because Lee is able to afford such a luxury. Yet, my children are victims of the racial differences that exist in both societies and as a curse they have to face a tough life because they are half Irish and half Chinese. The Chinese society will not teach them Chinese traditions because they are not considered fully Chinese and at school, their smarts are looked down upon because they believe their intelligence is not at the level of other children. Now imagine if I made the foolish decision to reproach is actions. What would be of me and my most precious children? My beloved Ellie sister, I am writing to you to inform you that I have been deceived by my own husband and as of today I will be the second wife of Lee
