CARD -- The Adventure of the Cardboard Box

One sister lost to jealousy, another to brain-fever and guilt. I might’ve been the third sister lost, for grief-stricken horror nearly killed me. But the detective’s doctor friend tended me, and even tried to refuse payment, though his clothes said he didn’t have a copper to spare.

He will eventually. I’ve no family left, and a renewed appreciation for kindness.

Ah, yes, I'm sure when the truth came out, it was quite a shock to Miss Susan. Nicely done!
