Ben's Diary

So i found a site that had screen capped and gotten most of what was written in his diary he had in "Through the Looking Glass", when you see *** it means the words are illegible

The time is no doubt approaching when
we will have to embark on a wholesale
re-evaluation of the facilities and much
of our Island infra-structure.
This was going to have to happen at
any rate (although (J) by his very na-
ture does not give it much thought)
but recent changes and interruptions *

4/12 An important meeting tonight with
(R) and (M) regarding the developing situation.
We are now in day 3 of our exodus from
the village and I am, I fear, at the limit
of my tactical resources. (J)’s agenda,
which I don’t question, is however a hurried
and difficult one and I could well wish
we’d had time to prepare, not merely
for the military strike, but for a prolonged
campaign in the bush. We are short on
provisions (seasonal) and, more importantly,
the long-awaited re-supply of camp gear
having been missed (and so narrowly!) and
just as our water supply routes have been
cut off, we look like a very sad sort of
antique army. Morale, I have to say, is not
as low as the circumstances might *.
Yet, for all that, I feel apprehensive

Supposedly J might stand for Jacob, M for Mikhail, and R for Richard.
