We were to share the duty at the early hours of the morning.

I was anxious about this, for I knew from our conversation that the Detective would watch in secret himself, and would be particularly alert about that time.
The day passed uneventfully.

Miss Trelawny slept in the afternoon; and after dinner went to relieve the Nurse.

Mrs.Grant remained with her, Sergeant Daw being on duty in the corridor.

Doctor Winchester and I took our coffee in the library.
