Dracula Readthrough 2025, 24 October

CHAPTER XXV

Jonathan Harker's Journal.

24 October.---A whole week of waiting. Daily telegrams to Godalming, but only the same story: "Not yet reported." Mina's morning and evening hypnotic answer is unvaried: lapping waves, rushing water, and creaking masts.

Telegram, October 24th.

Rufus Smith, Lloyd's, London, to Lord Godalming, care of H. B. M.

Vice-Consul, Varna.

"Czarina Catherine reported this morning from Dardanelles."
