Chapter 9

Dear Journal,
This might sound weird but I have felt a profound peace as Finny trains me. And something off topic but important Leper Lepeier enlisted into the war in January. Which makes the war seem even more unreal to me. But back to me, Finny and I stopped going to the Butt Room. I think Finny is trying to isolate me and the rest of my friends so it is just me and Finny. Later today Finny got a winter carnival together and is now running it. He made Brinker organize and transfer the equipment the dormitory to a park on the river. He also made Brownie Perkins guard several jugs of hard cider buried in the snow. We all organized this little ski jump, some snow statues, and we had some prizes. I guess you could say we music, it was just Chet Douglas on his trumpet though. But some of the guys seemed drunk off cider, especially when Finny did this wicked funny dance at the prize table. But at the end of the day Brownie came up to me and he said he had a telegram for me. It was from Leper saying that he has escaped and that his safety depends on me at his house.
