2 August, midnight
His stronger nature seems to have worked inwardly against himself . Men are beyond fear , working stolidly and patiently , with minds made up to worst . They are Russian , he Roumanian . * * * * * _ 2 August , midnight _ . -- Woke up from few minutes ' sleep by hearing a cry , seemingly outside my port . Could see nothing in fog . Rushed on deck , and ran against mate .
