It tasted different from jammer can stew. We were just getting up the train when 2 came a short & we saw two brothers coming. It proved to be O'Klough & his judgyshes who had come to help us back. They also brought fresh meat for the dogs - We found a letter from Thel saying everything was OK, & that she had gone with Dick to Cornwall. Thursday May 21-1914 What poor Roger Hanby's lack in no word. The two men now took most of the decks. She ice was hiding my pen safe behind.
