Exchanging a glance with Isolde, Percy turns back from the window. "No men to be seen, burnt or otherwise. Must have been a bad dream as you say."

Isolde comes back and once Ursula has gone back to bed with her mother she says, "There was nothing outside that Percy or I could see. The burnt man can only be her father's body surely? I can't believe anyone let her see it so how does she know unless she overheard gossip or is receiving a message from the other side.
We'd better hurry back to our posts; let's hope there hasn't been a disturbance in the meantime! I'll come and check each room now."

Expecting that the window of activity has passed with dawn not far off, Percy decides to head back to bed; before retiring he mentions to the others in passing that the back door of the kitchen was opened and left open while they were upstairs with no sign of any disturbance or tracks.

”When I was in the dining room, I saw the door handle move across the room but when I checked the corridor beyond, there was no-one there,” said Captain FitzWilliam. ”l was heading back to the dining room when I heard Miss Ursula scream...”

"I think the door handle may have been a precursor to something but the child screaming put an end to anything happening last night. It is strange about the kitchen door though. I suppose we should admit defeat tonight and turn in." Isolde says to the others when they meet again a few hours before dawn. "I shall be up for a late breakfast."

"I also heard a sound like a moan from out in the corridor," says
Alexander,
"but when I went to look, nobody was there. Probably just a draft. Well, I'm off to bed."
