Dear Diary,
Considering the shocking events of yesterday I feel guilty to admit, I slept quite well. For a few brief moments when I opened my eyes all was forgotten and then it came back to me as real as if I were seeing it again. Dr Cojones is confined to bed since his rescue. He has sustained some serious cuts and bruising but happily no bones appear broken. Mrs Norris is entertaining him with stories from the embroidery circle whilst he is bedridden so I am sure he will be keen to recover quickly. My Aunt, Uncle and Malcolm have been sent for and are no doubt journeying as I write. Evelyn's body has been taken to the Abbey to await the funeral arrangements. I was not aware Evelyn had entered the Abbey. Jane had known she was there for sometime but did not consider it worth mention. She said Evelyn's presence was one of the reasons she herself did not stay at the Abbey and I also discovered that Evelyn was the nun I had seen Jane wrestling to the ground.
"She was rather rude about you, brother, and the only personage allowed such liberty is I, " she said.
I was able to spend some time with Dr Cojones in his chamber this afternoon.
"Wine, I 'beliebe' your 'estory'. I am 'conbinced' that you are a good man, I am 'intuitibe'," he said patting my hand. I thanked him and told him of the hatred I had seen her eyes before she fell.
"I must have hurt her greatly," I murmured.
"Wine, 'estop! Eshe' was an 'ebil bitch'!" He snorted, "but I think you 'eshould' discuss with your Father what you will 'esay' to her family. Perhaps you 'eshould' not 'rebeal' the whole truth."
Thus, a story for the Tents has been decided to protect their name and standing. Only a few will know what Evelyn Tent was really like.
In those eyes I saw the person who attacked Miss Honey Pott and Miss Quirrel believing them to be objects of my affection, stole my precious Python and sent the rat and dead flowers. It was Evelyn who masqueraded as Death that moonlit night. What was it that Bigas Cojones called her?
Yes! She was an 'evil vitch'! Whatever a 'vitch' is!

"Evelyn Tent" curses!
The clue was there all the time.
I must pay more attention to the subtleties. Thanks for another laugh.

My dear Mr Moose,
Clue? Subtleties? Laugh?
Yours bewilderedly,
Wayne Austen.
Dear Wayne,
Sorry to cause you any bewilderment. I will try and keep with the theme.
Delighted as always,
B.
