Elephants Can Remember
“He was reading it now for the second time. The handwriting was a moderately good one, though it hardly bore thestamp of maturity.
Dear Monsieur Poirot, I am afraid you will find this letter of mine somewhat peculiar, but I believe it would help if I mentioned a friend of yours. I tried to get in touch with her to ask her if she would arrange for me to come and see you, but apparently she had left home. Her secretary – I am referring to Mrs Ariadne Oliver, the novelist – her secretary seemed to ...say something about her having gone on a safari in East Africa. If so, I can see she may not return for some time. But I’m sure she would help me. I would indeed like to see you so much. I am badly in need of advice of some kind.
Mrs Oliver, I understand, is acquainted with my mother, who met her at a literary luncheon party. If you could give me an appointment to visit you one day I should be very grateful. I can suit my time to anything you suggested. I don’t know if it is helpful at all but Mrs Oliver’s secretary did mention the word ‘elephants’.MoreLess
