aving warned him, I feel now that it
is as well. I am one who likes to fight in the open, not as a serpent
coiled in the grass and pretending, like the one in the Bible, to be a
friend.

3 P. M. No new developments. Although forbidden to go out nothing was
said about the roof. I have therfore been up on it exchanging Signals
with Lucy Gray next door by means of flags. As their roof slants and it
is still raining, she sliped once and slid to the gutter. She then
sat there and screamed like a silly, although they got her back with a
clothesline which the Policeman asked for.

But Mrs. Gray was very unpleasant from one of their windows and said I
was a Murderer at heart.

Has the Average Parent no soul?

NOON, APRIL 14 (In Camp).

This is a fine day, being warm and bright and all here but Elaine and
Mademoiselle--the latter not greatly missed, as although French and an
Ally she thinks we should be knitting etcetera, and ordered the car to

only aparently so.

Passed unanamously.

gave it up for The Study of the Rifle and Its Care.

Luncheon today: Canned salmon, canned beans and vanila wafers.

2 A. M., APRIL 15TH. I have seen a Spy at his nefarius work!

I am still trembling. At one moment I think that I must go again to
Father and demand consideration, as more mature than he seems to think,
and absolutely certain I was not walking in my sleep. But the next
moment I think not, but that if I can discover William's plot myself, my
Familey will no longer ignore me and talk about my studying Vocal next
winter instead of coming out.

To return to William, dear Log or journal. I had been asleep for some
time, but wakened up to find myself standing in the dining room with a
napkin in each hand. I was standing in the Flag Sign
