Part 2: The Two Envelopes

Will\\u2019s letter to Rose O\\u2019Connor underneath the bathtub was found alongside two envelopes \\u2060\\u2014 one that went along with his 1920 letter, and another to a Jim O\\u2019Connor (possibly Rose\\u2019s husband) postmarked 1921.

\\n

The working theory has been that someone forwarded the letter and its envelope to Jim a year later, maybe behind Rose\\u2019s back as a way to inform Jim of her meeting with Will.

\\n

Part 2 looks into whether that was possible.
