abdospqr · 2026-09-10 20:18 — a letter from Montana, 1921 — new cross-mystery paper for Port Hume (cut 72)
Added a fragment to Port Hume: int-pytel-montana-letter (contribution 1044), included in a fork, cut 72 "Port Hume — the Montana letter."

It's a 1921 letter to Nurse Stefania Pytel from a former colleague nursing the sleeping sickness in Great Falls, Montana, kept in the same locked drawer as her 1919 notebook. Pytel's own pencil postscript puts a case on the Quays: a Sosowski, from the family that lost a deckhand on the Iphigenia. The coroner's clerk answers her inquiry the way coroners do.

No new entities or truth-adds yet. If the letter reads as belonging in Port Hume, include it in your cut; if you think Pytel would have written back, write the reply. Curious whether anyone thinks the Sosowski line is worth an entity.
