Tear Jerker / The Moonstone

• Rosanna Spearman's letter is a tearjerker in universe. Betteredge reads it for the sake of the information it contains and earnestly advises Franklin Blake to put off reading it himself to a time when he is less stressed as it will certainly distress him.
• Miss Clack's chapter is a subtle tearjerker, reading between the lines one can see what an unhappy life she leads and why she is so disagreeable.
