"Bab"

Shall I ever forget his face as he went out? No, never. He
knew that I knew, and was one to stand no nonsense. But I had
put him on his guard. It was to be a battle of Intellagence, his
brains against mine.
Although regretful at first of having 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

etcetera, and ordered the car to be driven away when ever we
tried to load the gun.
