TRANSCRIPT

The following was found written on a postcard sent from the Motel Americana dated May 25th, 1986:

Dear Phoebe,

By now you’ve realized that I’ve left you and taken everything. The furniture, the jewelry, emptied the bank accounts, the whole kit and kaboodle. I know this may come as a shock but, like everything I’ve done in the past four months, I did it for you. You always say that my happiness is what’s most important to you.

But I feel the same way.

I hope you’re happy now.

Love always and forever,
Paul
