Dearest Freddie,

I hope that you are well, and that you are enjoying life in Ireland with your temporary family. I'm so very sorry I had to leave you like that on Titanic, but I felt that you would be much safer there than anywhere else. I'm so happy and thrilled to hear you are alive and well. I do look forward to hearing about all your adventures in Ireland when I reach you.

I am fine, and so is Jack. We are together on the Carpathia, which is about to arrive in New York. We are very happy and well. I have decided that it is best that I remain with Jack in America for a while, just until I have got hold of enough money to travel and fetch you and bring you back with me. I hope that this will not take me long, and that we will be with each other again very soon. Jack has promised to take me horseback riding along the beach, doesn't that sound exciting? Although, he insists that I must ride the "proper" way, with one leg either side! I can't wait to tell you everything we get up to.

I miss you so much, and I can't wait to hold you in my arms again. I really hope that you will enjoy your time in Ireland, and I hope that you are not missing me too much. Jack sends his best wishes, and says he can't wait to see you.

See you very, very soon little brother,

Lots and lots of love from,

Your Darling Sister, Scarlett xxx
