"We shall never know what happened to Matilda when Mr. Ellin took her from Miss Wilcox [Matilda, Ellin and Wilcox are characters in a fragment of a novel by Charlotte Brontë, left unfinished at her death]. We shall never know what happened to Mr. Ellin; but I confess that I am dying to know, and that I find it hard to forgive Mr. Nicholls for having killed them, so certain am I that they would have lived triumphantly if Charlotte Brontë had not married him."
May Sinclair, The Three Brontës. Okay, that's it; I'm doing my Ph.D on Brontë and Sinclair. This is too interesting.
