Dear Sir, - I was most intrigued by the correspondence in a recent issue relating to girls with only one leg. Especially in the letter of "One-legged Dorothy". I notice that she said that it is her right leg that is missing.
For many years I have been collecting details about all the one legs I see, and it may interest you to know that nearly three quarters of all the one-legged girls I have known were minus their left leg.
Would it be too much trouble to ask "London Life" to further clear up this point and find out if this high proportion of left one-leggedness is general?
I admire very much the courage and skill displayed by all your one-legged correspondents as being myself afflicted with one short leg, I have always had to use a stick.
Yours truly,
Curious.
