6. Baskerville Hall (10 pp.)

11:43 p.m.  "Cruel to be kind" on YouTube.

11:52 p.m.  Notable so far:  "wagonette"; description of nature with abrupt turn from sun/green/summer to yellow/fall and abrupt end with "Halloa"; "the Notting Hill murderer".

11:55 p.m.  And then "... the barren waste, the chilling wind, and the darkling sky."  Just like that.  From the sun/green/summer to this in just over one page.  This could have been set in the midwest  :)

11:57 p.m.  "Swan and Edison."  Yes, the book is that old  :)

Midnight      The hyphens are standing out again  :(  "weather-bitten", "Good-bye", "age-blackened", "old-fashioned", "log-fire", "coat-of-arms" ... is he doing this on purpose?

12:08 a.m.  Done.  Now for the Step paper.  More tomorrow.  I should have been a professional telegram writer.  Or telegram-writer---take your pick.
