SANTAMARIA, DEC. 5 1975
DEAR MOTHER,
I DECIDED TO LEAVE MANY YEARS AGO, BUT SOME TIMES WE FORGET ABOUT IMPORTANT THINGS. MAYBE YOU’LL BE SURPRISED TO LEARN THAT KILLING MYSELF WAS THE FIRST THING I DID AS AN INDEPENDENT PERSON. OF COURSE I PREVIOUSLY MADE SOME PHONECALLS AN ATTENDED A COUPLE OF RENDEZ-VOUS IN ORDER TO HAVE EVERYTHING ON RIGHT TIME AND SPACE. NOTIFICATIONS CAME WHEN EXPECTED, A MARBLE TOMBSTONE FINEMENT TAILLÉ, A SOLEMN MASS IN A FANCY CHURCH, A NICE NOTCH IN AN UPTOWN CEMETERY, AND AN IRONED TUXEDO IN THE CLOSET READY TO GO. DON'T WORRY IF YOU FORGET BRINGING BLOSSOMS TO MY ULTIMATE NICHE. WE ALSO FORGET ABOUT SIMPLE THINGS. PLEASE, GIVE AWAY MY BOOKS, I KNOW YOU DISLIKE THEM,DON'T WANT YOU TO BURN THEM UP. PLEASE, GET RID OFF ALL OF THOSE PORTRAITS OF MINE, TOO.
TRY TO BE INDEPENDENT ABOVE ALL. MAKE YOUR OWN WAY. IN EVERY WHICH WAY YOU LOOK WIND BLOWS SMOOTH AND HARSH. YOU DRIFT AS FARTHER AS YOU CAN. WELL, I'M GETTING TIRED OF TYPING THIS LETTER SO I'M GOING TO END BY SAYING THAT YOU WERE MY MOTHER AND I APPRECIATE IT. TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOURSELF. I FORGOT TO CALL UNCLE JOHN.
Post Scriptum: Feed the cat and pet him regularly
TRULY,
YOUR SON H. D.

THE EIGHTH SUICIDE VICTIM THIS MONTH WAS FOUND IN HIS APARTMENT LAST NIGHT. STILL, CAUSES ARE UNCLEAR. NONETHELESS, AUTHORITIES BELIEVE THESE DEATHS TO BE LINKED TO DRUG CONSUMPTION WHOSE RATE HAS ENCREASED NEARLY 75% THIS YEAR ENDING. MARY ANNE LOUIS, THE VICTIM'S MOTHER, CLAIMS TO BE “A GOOD WOMAN WHO RAISED A GOOD CATHOLIC BOY”. TWENTY-TWO-YEAR-OLD H. D. LOUIS RAN A WELL KNOWN CLEANING COMPANY IN OUR TOWN. THIS RELATIVELY SUCCESSFUL BUSINESSMAN ATTENDED HOLY SANTAMARÍA COLLEGE AS WELL AS OTHER VICTIMS. Mrs. LOUIS WILL SPEND A MOURNFUL CHRISTMAS AND A GLOOMY NEW YEAR ALONG WITH OTHER FAMILIES INVOLVED IN THIS SUICIDAL BLAZE. MAJOR S. T. VOLEUR ALONG WITH ARCHBISHOP KINDERLIEBE ARE PLANNING NEW STRATEGIES “TO CALL A HALT" TO THESE DEATHS. SANTAMARIANS EXPECT THIS DARK STAIN TO BE WIPED OFF THEIR TRANQUIL COMMUNITY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
