H. Dolson R/Constable Royal Ulster Constabulary

Brooklyn 65 Knock Road Belfast, BT5 6LE December 12, 1964 Dear Sir,

I beg of you in this time of holiday to consider this letter in a spirit of both humanity and humility before the Almighty. The forgiveness of God toward us is not just a religious historical footnote, but rather a lesson for us all, an example. My prior letters have gone unanswered. I beg at least a line of communication so that difficult issues, any issues, can be resolved. With the death of my wife, my daughter Katharine, far before her due years, has taken on the mantle of lady of our household. With premature responsibility came carriage that might seem precocious. Meeting persons at the door (never inside) otherwise unattended is what a housekeeper does. What else could she do? She is a lovely child and a frail child. I am certain that despite her high spirit, she will not hold up physically in jail. There is no reason for her to be there. There are no accounts of any activities on her part to warrant any penalty, let alone incarceration.
