The Diary of Nathaniel Bryceson (Part 8)

[Ruskie]

Welcome to Part 8 everyone. 

The amazing discovery of the mysterious Mrs S(anigear) by avm really stirred up a frenzy at the end of Part 7 and goes to show that you should never give up. I thought we'd tried absolutely everything we could to find Mrs Skirricker but there is often another angle of approach to solve these mysteries, as found by avm.

I hope we'll manage to do the same in Part 8 with our other favourite character Ann Fox.

PART 8 already??

Good heavens, what a nosey chatty bunch you are.  I went under the knife again last Friday and you were still entrenched in Part 7's frenzy, now here we are almost a week later and things are still moving apace.

Keep it up... it's keeping me amused...

Yes we are.  Still going strong!

And ... ouch ... you poor little mite. 

If you are incapacitated and recovering I hope there'll be a big juicy gossipy entry in Nathaniel's diary today for you to get stuck into to take your mind off your aches and pains.

Have a funeral to go to this morning that will take my mind of just about most things.      Our Charlotte from the YT thread lost Mr Charlotte last week and we say farewell to him this morning.

Promise I will follow up on Nathaniel tonight .... after a few red wines ( pain reduction medication you understand  )

Have tried in vain to find that dratted Ann ( sorry, I am sure that she was a lovely lady, but did she have to be so difficult to find.  Perhaps we should ask her to change her name to Hepzibah Throckmorton Jones... can't be many of them around).

[Ruskie]

Oh dear - that's sad - so you have a difficult day ahead ....  You'll have earned your wines.

I just checked and it's not a juicy diary entry today and something we've already done some work on (the demolition of the rectory at St James Westminster)

Seems Mrs. S's portrait falls into the hands of Mr. Wilkinson, Clinton Street, Nottingham after her death

Also notes George & Mary Bunyan have 11 children and gives pedigree info.

Mr. Wilkinson appears to have been the executor of her will.

A nice description of Mrs. S. and mention she leaves the painting to "the meeting"
