It was March.One night,I was in bed.But I was not asleep.The house was quiet.Suddenly,I heard a sound in the corridor out side my room.
'Who's there?'I said.Nobody answered.Then I heard a strange laugh.
I got out of my bed and I went quietly to the door.I listened.I heard another sound.Somebody was walking up the stairs to the top corridor.Then I heard somebody close a door.
'Was that Grace Poole'I said to myself.'Yes, it was Grace.Why was she laughing? And why is she walking in the house at night? Is she mad? I must tell MrsFairfax about this. I will speak to her now.'
