A love letter from Charlie Chaplin to Edna Purviance dated March 1, 1915. It remains in Chaplin’s archives so may not have been sent:
“My Own Darling Edna, My heart throbbed this morning when I received your sweet letter. It could be nobody else in the world that could have given me so much joy. Your language, your sweet thoughts and the style of your love note only tends to make me crazy over you. I can picture your darling self sitting down and looking up wondering what to say, that little pert mouth and those bewitching eyes so thoughtful. If I only had the power to express my sentiments I would be afraid you’d get vain. Well little girl I hate to stop this outburst of divine emotion but you are the cause of my being the happiest person in the world – Charles.”
