Summary

This pamphlet tells the story of a young woman whose life began a downward spiral beginning with a focus on dress and ending in murder. The author says: "you ask me to tell you what brought me here. I think I will. ... I have thought about it, sitting here in the dark, and it has been written in letters of fire all over these walls, and dancing before my eyes, and mocking me. Dress!"
