The Colony

New? Yikes Rachel. And he will be shut up with her. Could you or her father or both not go with her?

They are just south of Calais now, planning to get the Shuttle at dawn tomorrow. If she tells me things have got worse, we'll borrow some money and rush up to rescue her. I'm hoping that if only she can get to her brother in Farnham (which would cheer him up too) this young man can eff right off, and we'll work out how to get her to Carlisle. But it is very, very hard right now. As long as he doesn't get violent...

Spoke to her. She thinks things are better. I'm less worried.
