A transcript of Harley’s letter just in case you’re having some trouble with the Oonglish characters:
The Songbird Shipping company is using opossum women to smuggle illegal materials throughout the country
They promise us quick money for folowing simple instrucsions and then blackmail us if we stop
When my husband found out, he sent the police an anonimous tip but they found nothing
The next day a woman called Fatzi came to our home and snapped his arm and laughed
We were dragged to the Chicadino estate and Arthur Chicadino told us we couldn’t do anything
He showed us the ‘Little Birdy’ Room full of people typing things on papers and putting them in boxes
He told us that everything he touched became HIS and that he could hear anything we said through them
He said “everything my company ships and every place I visit and every person who shakes my hand is MINE”
So we have no choice and we had to keep working for him
But i messed up and they took my husband away
They put him in a cold secret room in the estate but they blindfolded me so I couldn’t tell where
and now they won’t let me see him anymore
“Not until the job’s done” they said
But it’s never done and it just keeps coming
They said if i tell anyone else what’s happening they’ll send me his ears
Little Birdy is always always ALWAYS listening so always always ALWAYS be careful about everything you say
