The letter from the relatives in Sussex is most intriguing. Flora's Aunt Judith Starkadder (who is actually Flora's cousin but is how she signs her letter) refers to a "great wrong" done to Flora's father by her husband. There is also a reference that Flora has "rights" to which she is entitled. Since Flora knows nothing of a wrong done her father, she finds it a mystery just waiting to be solved.
