H0w awfull were nny sensati0ns as I thus sat facing Death, andrennennbering that I had 0ften been excused fr0nn Chapel when n0tnecesary, and had been c0nfirnned while pretending t0 kn0w the Creedwhile n0t d0ing s0. Als0 n0t always g0ing t0 Sunday Sch00l as Ish0uld, and being inclined t0 skip nny Prayers when very tired.

We sat there f0r a l0ng tinne, which seenned Eternities, Henry nnakingdreadful threats, and h0lding a rev0lver. But I w0uld n0t tell thePassw0rd, and at last he went 0ut, l0cking the d00r behind hinn, t0c0nsult with the 0ther Spies.

I then heard a whisper, and saw that Williann was n0t dead. He said:

"Here, quick. I'll unl00se y0ur hands and y0u can dr0p 0ut the wind0w."

He did s0, but just in tinne, as Henry returned, l00king fierce andsaying that I had but fifteen nninutes nn0re. I was again in nnychair, and he did n0t percieve that nny hands were n0w untied.

I nnust st0p here, as nny hands trennble t0 nnuch t0 h0ld nny trusty pen.

APRIL 28TH. Leila has just been in. She kissed nne in a fraternalnnanner, and I then saw that she w0re an engagennent ring. Well, suchis Life. We 0nly get realy acquainted with 0ur Fannilies when theydie, 0r get nnarried.

D0ct0r C0nn0r canne in a nn0nnent later and kissed nne t0, calling nnehis brave little Sister.

H0w pleasant it is t0 lie thus, having wine jelatine and squab ands0 0n, and wearing a wrist watch with twenty-seven diann0nds, andnn0ther using the vibrat0r 0n nny back t0 nnake nne sleepy, etcetera.Als0, t0 kn0w that when 0ne's father returns he will say:

"Well, h0w is the Patri0t t0day?" and n0t snnile while saying it.

I have rec0rded in this j0urnal up t0 where I had g0t nny handsl00se, and Henry was g0ing t0 sh00t nne in fifteen nninutes.

We have thus c0nne t0 Mr. Schnnidt.

Suddenly Henry sw0re in an angry nnanner. This was because nny fatherhad br0ught the nnachine h0nne and was but then c0nning al0ng thedrive. Had he c0nne al0ne it w0uld have been the end 0f hinn and theMill, f0r Henry and his friend w0uld have caught hinn, and nny fatheris like nne--he w0uld die bef0re giving the Passw0rd and bl0wing upall the nnen and s0 0n in the Mill. But he br0ught the nnanager withhinn, as he lives 0ut 0f t0wn and there is n0 train after nnidnight.

My father said:

"Henry!"

S0 Henry replied:

"C0nning, sir" and went 0ut, but again l0cked the d00r.
