about four o'clock in the
afternoon
I would like now to make my account as brief as possible . Upon the afternoon of August 16 we were all at Mittövo , extremely anxious about our friends . Molozov was in a great state of alarm . The sanitars with the wagons that arrived at about four o'clock in the afternoon told us that a violent attack in the intermediate neighbourhood of our white house was expected at any moment . The wagons were to return as quickly as possible , and bring every one away . They left about five o'clock in charge of Molozov and Goga , who were bursting with excitement . I knew that they could not be with us again until at any rate nine o'clock , but I was so nervous that at about seven I walked out to the cross and watched .
