"Yesterday I behave extremely ill in God's most holy church for I would never attend myself nor let Isabella attend which was a great crime for she often, often tells me that when to or three are geathered together God is in the midst of them, and it was the very same Divil that tempted Job that tempted me I am sure; but he resisted Satan though he had boils and many many other misfortunes which I have escaped.... I am now going to tell you the horible and wretched plaege that my multiplication gives me you can't conceive it the most Devilish thing is 8 times 8 and 7 times 7 it is what nature itself cant endure."
But what were his words to me? Dear Dairy, I gave no thought to the smallpox he had mentioned, although fatle to the complexion. Or to the fight at the mill. I heard only Adrian's possable tradgic fate. Sudenly I colapsed, and asked for a drink of water, feeling horible, very wobbley and unable to keep my knees from bending.
He looked at me, and said: "I'm rather flabergasted, Bab. I what ought I to say, anyhow?" He came very close, dear Dairy, and sudenly I saw in his eyes the horible truth. He thought me in Love with him, and sending for him while the Familey was out. Words cannot paint my agony of Soul. I stepped back, but he siezed my hand, in a caresing gesture. "Bab!" he said. "Dear little Bab!"
Adrian went to the mill a little after ten, and has not been seen since. It is in vain I protest that he has not eloped with me. It is almost time now for the Matinee and no Adrian. What shall I do? SATURDAY, 11 P.M. Dear Dairy, I have the meazles. I am all broken out, and look horible. But what is a sickness of the Body compared to the agony of my Mind? What is a sickness to a broken heart?
She gazed at me strangely when she saw my face, and then cluched me by the arm. "Bab!" she cried. "What on the earth is the matter with your complexion?" But I was desparate. "Let me go!" I said. "Only lend me two dollars for a taxi and let me go. Somthing horible has happened." She gave me ninety cents, which was all she had, and I rushed down the street, followed by her peircing gaze.
