The Conrad Letters

When English cad Conrad Wilkinson leaves friends, family, and fiance for a jaunt in New York City, the world sees only a playboy jumping the pond. But when the festering secrets of a sleepy English village and the glittering knife-edge of a major metropolis collide, more than one man's life may hang in the balance...

Sunday

October 23, 1911 (New York Ned to Conrad)

Conrad -

I stopped by to show you my latest article in the Gazette. Thought it might interest you.

Send it on to your father if you get a chance. He'd get a kick out of it.

See you around,

Ned

English Politician Stands Up to Feudal System
by Ned Devine

Three cheers for Henry Wilkenson, an English Member of Perliment who cast one of the deciding votes in the recently passed Parliment Act. The Parliment Act reduces the power of the House of Lords, that musty bastion of hereditary rule. This unexpected progressive act from a politician who ran on such a conservative ticked should be applauded even on this side of the Atlantic. However, one wonders how Mr. Wilkenson's fellow countrymen feel about his sudden lean to the left.

On an unrelated note this worthy politician's son, Conrad Wilkenson, as recently arrrived in New York and has been seen about town and at several important social functions. Give him a clap on the back for his old dad!
