Jan. 19th, 2009 09:31 amQ15: Who:
i: was morally pure in EC2?
ii: shot Buffalo Bill at Belvedere, Ohio?
iii: went to the wrong church for her wedding?
iv: believed, erroneously, that Byron murdered Ezra Chater?
v: killed Lord Frederick in a duel, following his return from Belgium?
vi: possessed nothing but the contents of his wallet, the clothes he stood up in, the hare-lip, the automatic he should have left behind?
vii: was as little interested in love as in the habits of Trematodes?
viii: wore white for her immolation on October 27?
ix: advocated unlimited slaughter of bluejays?

EC2
Date: 2009-01-19 12:57 pm (UTC)Broadgate/Liverpool Street, Spitalfields, Cheapside/Gresham Street/Mansion House, Threadneedle Street (Bank), Bishopsgate, Barbican/Chiswell Street/Bunhill Row, Moorgate/Finsbury Circus and Shoreditch (or at least parts thereof - the rest is in E1 I think).
Does that give any clues?
"The Pure Woman of [something] Street"???
