And with aheavy heart I read of the horse races. I calm myself with greatdifficulty and comfort myself by saying: "Let us study; our turnwill come, if it is God's will. " I have read this journal.

There wasthe same hissing sound as at the races. I jumped. I no longer knowwhere I am. Come; it mustn't be talked about. September 20th.
