Letter from China. "a great trauma." XII

"Learning of the sad event, [evil-one-who-forced-her-to-give-up-cat's name omitted] also regrets deeply: he should not have deserted the two little cats I brought up from their very young days (probably only one-week old)

Dear [name omitted], how I could relieve of that great trauma quickly? At home or on the street, I can't help calling ["cat spirit's name" omitted, "cat spirit's name" omitted], speaking to the lovely poor thing, sobbing bitterly...I have prayed to God for a quick relief several times but it has not yet worked. I know it takes time for a very emotional person like me to forget about the pain, to get over the great trauma."
