I therfore gave him a key to
the side door, and now feel much better. He also said not to
have any of the Corps detailed to watch William in the daytime,
as he can do so, because the Familey is now spending all day at
the Red Cross.
He thinks the Password idea fine, as otherwise almost
anybody could steal a medal and get into the mill.
William seems to know that I know something, and this
morning, while opening the door for me, he said:
"I beg pardon, Miss Bab, but I see Henry is driving you
today."
"It is not hard to see," I replied, in a hauty manner. It
is not the Butler's business who is driving me, and anyhow I had
no intention of any unecessary conversation with a Spy.
"Your own car being out of order, miss?"
"It is," I retorted. "As you will probably be going to the
Garage, although against orders, while Henry is out, you can see
it yourself."
I then went out and sat in front in order to converce with
Henry, as the back is lonely. I looked up at the door and
William was standing there, with a very queer look on his face.
3 P. M. Mr. Schmidt is late and the Corps is practising,
having now got to K.
