BY RUTH RENDELL
A man called Maurice had got two stories with different women.
One was his ex- couple and the other was Patricia, his new love.
But he returned to his first home to take his belongings
He wanted to send his things to Patricia as a present.
He was in London with Betsy, his ex couple and he had to send everything to Australia
where Patricia lived and where he had met her when he was working for a year.
He had gone to work and he had left Betsy with promises of coming back and love but
it was not true.
So, Betsy was really angry with him when he came back home but he didnt want any
kind of argument and he didnt answer her.
Although, They fought a lot and in one morning while he was packing and preparing to
travel Betsy drove mad and hit him with a lamp on his forehead many times. He fell
down and died
He had written a note in the box full ofhis things to Patricia and Betsy wanted to send it
to her but instead of sending her all the ornaments and cuttlery, she put the dead man
inside . So, when the men who had to carry the box appeared at 10 oclock, they sent
the box to Australia with the note and the terrible thing inside that said for Patricia
