The postman tripped over Angela's
prostrate form and stooped to see if
the lovely woman at his feet was hurt, or even alive. Angela stirred,
opened her wide lavender blue eyes and murmured, "Where am I?"
The relieved mail carrier handed her a letter and went on his

The letter was from Angela's
cousin, Agatha Prim-Twitchett, telling her
of a suite of rooms available at a rooming house just down the street
from her in Lavender Lane, a London suburb. Angela was tempted. Many

would be just a few houses down....but, all things considered......
Angela and James Abner Goodfellow
were settling down in their sunny new
rooms on Lavender Lane, on the second floor overlooking a pleasant
garden. Down the street, Agatha Prim-Twitchett leaned out of a 3rd story
window, her trusty binoculars swinging on her ample bosom. Agatha liked

Angela's house and ring the doorbell....
