It’s time.
I am so nervous.

William went ahead of me to make things ready for my arrival.

Mr. Clayton has all my things loaded and ready to go. It will be a long drive and he does not think we will arrive before two or three in the morning. The only thing to do now is say goodbye to everyone. It may be some time before I come back to visit.

Mother was quiet and fidgeted a lot with my dress and hair. Milly asked Father if she could come with me, just for a few days, but Father refused. He wants her home to look after Mother’s health and keep the house running smoothly through this transition.

Mother gave me a stack of writing paper tied up in pretty pink ribbon. She also gave me one of Grandmother’s quilts.

I must go now.

Dec. 13, 1904 - The Diary of Miss. Whetherby Found in Abandoned House

Elizabeth Whetherby, a bright and intelligent woman, and the youngest child of Wilhelm and Josephina Whetherby, vanished on the night of April 7, 1862. To the dismay of her family and friends, there were no suspects in the case though a few local men had been questioned. The case became the property of the Unsolved Crime Division and buried amongst the other files. Years later, a stained and weather-beaten diary has been found in the basement of an abandoned building in Redinshire. The cover, ripped and water-damaged, bears the embossed name "Elizabeth Whetherby."
