22 September. On the train to Exeter, Jonathan sleeps. It seems that only yesterday when I made the intimate notes, and yet how much has passed between them, in Whitby and around the world to me! Jonathan was away and I did not hear from him, and now married to Jonathan, Jonathan a solicitor, a partner in a firm, rich, business owner, Mr. Hawkins dead and buried, and Jonathan with another attack that can hurt a lot. Someday I may ask about it. Everything is going down. I am rusty in my shorthand, see what unexpected prosperity does for us, so it's not bad that cool again working out a bit.
The service was very simple and solemn. Only ourselves and assistservants, one or two old friends of his from Exeter, his London agent, and a gentleman representing Sir John Paxton, president of the Law Society. Jonathan and I were holding hands, and feel our best and dearest friend had left us.
returned to the city in silence and take a bus to the corner of Hyde Park, Jonathan thought it would interest me a moment to go Row, so we sat down, but there were so few people there, it was sad and desolate to see so many empty chairs. We did think we had the empty chair at home, so we get up and walk towards Piccadilly. Jonathan was holding my hand, as formerly used to do before I go to school. I thinka very bold thing, because you can not spend years teaching etiquette and decorum to the girls without the pedantry of it as one a little impressed. But it was Jonathan, and it was my husband, and we do not know any of the ones we saw (and we did not care if they knew us), so we walked in the same way.
I was watching a very beautiful girl with a hat-wheel carriage, which was sitting on a victory out of Giuliano's, when I felt Jonathan squeezed my hand so hard that hurt me, and said in a whisper "God!" I'm always anxious to Jonathan, because I always fear that some nervous breakdown can sick again, so I quickly turned to him and asked what hadJonathan closed his eyes and quickly fell into a sleep, her head resting on my shoulder.
I thought was best for him, and did not wake. As to the twenty minutes he woke up, and told me quite cheerfully:
- But mine, I've fallen asleep! Oh, forgive me for being so inattentive! Come, we'll have a cup of tea anywhere. Obviously
had forgotten all about the strange stranger, in the same way that during his illness he had forgotten all that this episode had reminded him again. I do not like the attacks of amnesia, can cause or prolong a bad brain. But I must ask, for fear of causing more harm than good, but somehow I c
