David Robertson takes us on further from Captain Taubman's residence, The Nunnery, to Kirk Braddan. He introduces us to 'Graveyard Poetry', and also to a story told by another visitor, Colonel Richard Townley - to whom it sounds as though Robertson had something of an aversion.

In the excerpt from our Manx translation of 'Dracula', Lucy Westenra arranges for Dr John Seward to sleep on a sofa in a room adjoining her bedroom, with both doors open so she can call for him if necessary. The following morning, Professor Van Helsing wakes John Seward and they go through to Lucy's room.
