11 February

Miss Prism very cross indeed all morning, chiefly, I believe, because Dr. Chasuble has been absent quite often recently. I am quite sure that my Miss Prism has a more than usual interest in praying, because she certainly appears to find dear Dr. Chasuble of great interest, and he has told me he will never marry. Could there be yet *another* scandal brewing in our little household? And speaking of scandals, I have determined to begin an affair with Uncle Jack's wicked brother Ernest *immediately*. It certainly wouldn't do to wait until someone else discovers him.
