Midnight
In the meantime I must find out all I can about Count Dracula , as it may help me to understand . To-night he may talk of himself , if I turn the conversation that way . I must be very careful , however , not to awake his suspicion . * * * * * _ Midnight . _ -- I have had a long talk with the Count . I asked him a few questions on Transylvania history , and he warmed up to the subject wonderfully . In his speaking of things and people , and especially of battles , he spoke as if he had been present at them all .
