Purloining My Home

By Mario V. Farina

I was a retired English teacher living in Londontown. One day I began getting intimidating letters from an unknown sender. They demanded I move or face being blown to bits with a bomb left over from World War II days. My friend Emma Swinton came to my emotional aid but became angry with me when I hinted that she might be the author of the letters. This story reveals who it actually was and what happened.
