Stalked a kitten in kitchen-passage. The other little cowards ran away.

Upstairs, past the drawing-room. Door of old Mrs. Brown’s bedroom open invitingly. I entered. Never been in before. Nothing much worth having. Ate a few flowers out of a bonnet. Beastly.

Then into Miss Brown’s room. Very tidy when I entered. Discovered there packet labelled “High-class Pure Confectionery.” Not bad. Pretty room.
