Sheila's Handwriting vs Alleged Suicide Note

[David1819]

Seems we have had samples of Sheila Caffell's handwriting all along. In the form of a letter addressed to 'Peter', dated 5th of November 1982. (You can find the link at the bottom)

I then began to compare the same words from that letter to the alleged suicide note. It was allot harder than I expected to determine anything. Hopefully someone here might know more about handwriting analysis.

 That's a new one on me David,but I'll have a bash. Once you pick up the flow of the conversation it's quite easy.
The letter up to where I'm at seems to be written with lucidity so far.

Sheila stated that,in as many words,her form of communication was by writing. That also explains a lot.

There's no doubt that both are written by Sheila,the latter you can detect a change,so yes.It doesn't take a Philadelphia lawyer to work that one out.
How much do they get paid for doing this ? I think I'll go to the job centre tomorrow !!

Rubbish!

Rubbish! 

That's the only answer I've now come to expect  It bothers me not I'm afraid.

Good then you won't be disappointed then. No one here is a qualified hand writing expert. Lets wait for the results of the analysis before making such claims. It's really not a matter of it being her hand writing, it's NOT a suicide note!

I know this particular letter isn't a suicide one but towards the end of it where it tapers,it compares with the other " oddly written " ones,which are.
There's nothing wrong in guessing,is there ?

No, nothing wrong in guessing, as long as you make that clear the above doesn't claim to be a guess.

I know in my own mind it isn't a guess though,nor a shot in the dark.My powerful magnifying glass worked that one out,along with a smidgen of common sense when Sheila had said that writing was her way of communicating.
Does it not ring a bell ? No ? thought it didn't.

I didn't need a magnifying glass so just goes to show that that note wasn't 'illegible' nor is it the note that was found in the bedroom and given an exhibit reference number. If this is what the CT are going to use as a submission, then they are on a hiding to nowhere.

No bells ringing here - you must have tinnitus

No tinnitus here,or any other kind of us. But I do have a question in which to refresh my memory :
Who was it in the household who used to leave " notes " here and there ?

June used to leave notes - why? Not sure if they were necessarily to anyone in particular though.

I think June's notes were aides de memoire for her bible study group.

Okay,thanks,wasn't sure. I'd be interested to read what was on them that's all. In the 70's,I came across someone who did the same thing------------he had a breakdown. Instead of confronting a person face to face,he'd leave notes everywhere.Then there was my late sister-in-law,who,after her parents died,used to scribble notes,some legible,some not---she suffered depression. We know that June suffered from depression so it would appear that this trait is in some depressives,including Sheila herself. Interesting.

Yes, not sure why it's relevant though?
