6 October

Chapter 24 con't.
Jonathan Harker's Journal

Later.--It is done. My will is made, and all complete. Mina if she survive is my sole heir. If it should not be so, then the others who have been so good to us shall have remainder.

It is now drawing towards the sunset. Mina's uneasiness calls my attention to it. I am sure that there is something on her mind which the time of exact sunset will reveal. These occasions are becoming harrowing times for us all. For each sunrise and sunset opens up some new danger, some new pain, which however, may in God's will be means to a good end. I write all these things in the diary since my darling must not hear them now. But if it may be that she can see them again, they shall be ready. She is calling to me.

The hell has happened? They've all gone quiet! Surely such compulsive diarists wouldn't just take a rest? I'm worried...

Hmm ... another blog glitch or have they really been silent for 3 days?

No glitch... a lull in the storm of recent entries. Hang tight, there is more to come!

I need the break! That was a crazy couple of days!

after such an intense week this lull feels off!

I imagine they're travelling to the Black Sea to intercept the Count's ship, if we don't hear from them until they reach there we won't have anything to read for a couple of weeks! :o(

This is going to be the first time I wished they had airplanes in the 19th century! :p
