Flora clutched nervously at the back of her chair. She seemed to see the danger of discovery piling up above Kerr like a mountain. The judge chuckled. "You see what you saved me from.

We arrived in Bilge Trench at 8 a.m. Here I found Captain Bodington, Victor Telfer, and Beesley. I had a cup of tea and a sleep during the morning.
