The box of letters revealed by Charles Widmore
Desmond thumbs through a stack of letters from the box.
Desmond's letters refers to a box of letters that Desmond wrote to Penelope Widmore while he was incarcerated at Southway Garrison.
In "Live Together, Die Alone":
After being released from prison and dishonorably discharged from The Royal Regiment of Scotland, it was revealed that Penelope's father, Charles Widmore had intercepted all of the letters. He then returned them to Desmond in a box as he attempted to bribe Desmond into ceasing all further contact with his daughter.
Later, when Penelope discovered Desmond's location and confronted him, she asked why he didn't write to her while in prison. Desmond did not reveal that he had, but that her father had taken all of the letters.
In "Special": The appearance of a box of intercepted letters also appered in Michael's flashback. After Susan's death, he discovered a box of letters that he had written to Walt, letters that also were intercepted and never delivered.
Addresses
Penelope's address, possibly inspired by the real Knightsbridge street Ennismore Gardens, as listed on these letters is:
- 23 Davismore Gardens
- KnightsBridge, London
- SW4 8PS
Desmond's return address (again, the street name is unclear) is:
- Southway Garrison
- 42 BercChurch Rd.
- Halstead, Essex, CO8 5WE
