Rose Lacey:
[in a letter to Eilis]
It's hard for me to believe that you're reading this in America, thousands of miles across the sea. The big news here is that since you left, Mammy has stopped shopping at Nettles Kelly's. As you know, her bread wasn't always fresh and she overcharged for everything. And she's awful.
Mary Lacey:
[in another letter]
I haven't told her to her face. There's no need. She knows that she overcharges and her bread's not fresh.
Rose Lacey:
We talk about you every evening, of course. We want to know everything. I'm sure you're busy, but even if your letters were 200 pages, they wouldn't be long enough for your mother. Take care of yourself. Love.
