Tuesday the Ninth
I’ve started to say my prayers again. It rather frightened Dinky-Dunk, who sat up in bed and asked me if I wasn’t feeling well. I promptly assured him that I was in the best of health. He not only agreed with me, but said I was as plump as a partridge. When I am alone, though, I get frightened and fidgety. So I kneel down every night and morning now and ask God for help and guidance. I want to be a good woman and a better wife. But I shall never let Duncan know—never!
