An orphan caused by a 2-line header for one particular letter in the previous column.

I think that's their style for intro'ing a topic with more than one letter? I would lay blame on the widow (if that's the correct term) in the next letter down, ironically the word "marry"

Widow is the correct term, I just tend to use "orphan" for both because it's one less thing to file away in my head.
In this case "marry" would be a runt, a single word and period occupying its own line. To me, that's getting kinda judgy, lol.
