Dorothy Wordsworth continues describing what she sees on her walks in and around the Douglas area and the people she meets as she stays with Joanna and Henry Hutchinson on the South Quay in Douglas. Her nephew, poet William Wordsworth's youngest son, Willy, is also staying there this summer of 1828. Dr John Seward's asylum patient, Renfield, is causing some interest and concern again. Dr Seward tries to get further information from him. He talks of 'eating' but can't bring himself to mention 'drinking'. Dr Seward wonders about the reason, in this episode from our translation into the Manx Gaelic of Bram Stoker's Dracula.
