Miss Narwin: I'm...I'm calling from the airport now. I'm going to Florida. To be with my sister. And her husband.

8:05 PM Philip Malloy's Diary
I felt horrible today. Got rejected by Washington Academy. Something about not wanting reporters coming in to interview me every other day.
Mother says her sister will let me go to the district school in Conover. Don't feel like it. But I don't think I can stay at Harrison for much longer. All the kids there hate me! They say something about me betraying everyone.
This is the worst day of my life...
From a letter written by Margaret Narwin to her sister, Anita Wigham
...I felt horrible today. The New Hampshire Air Service refused to fly me to Florida. Something about not wanting critics bombing down the plane or something.
Joe Palleni offered me back my job. Don't feel like it. I don't think I can stay at Harrison for much longer. All the staff there hate me! They say something about me betraying everyone.
This is the worst day of my life...

Miss Narwin: Hello? Can I speak to Anita Wigham?
Anita Wigham: Speaking. Is that Peg?
Miss Narwin: Yes. I have a bit of a situation here. I don't have a job! Everyone is sending hate mail! And worst of all, I have no idea what to do! What should I do now?
Anita Wigham: I don't know...
Miss Narwin: I can't go to Florida! The Air service was on strike!
Anita Wigham: I know...you sent me a letter, remember?
Miss Narwin: Yes...
Anita Wigham: I think you should just go back to Harrison. Maybe that, or the Washington Academy.
Miss Narwin: I can't go back to Harrison...And the Washington Academy...I've tried...
Anita Wigham: Any other schools in the district?
Miss Narwin: Yes, but...
Anita Wigham: Try it.
