Doctor Julia Hoffman might have been killed, had she not revealed to me some rather distressing information. Despite my earlier thoughts on the possible success of her proposed experiments, I decided to ignore the chance at a normal life and kill her. As wonderful as the possiblity might have been, too great a chance would be taken should I allow her to live.

I was straight forward enough with her about my decision. I moved to snap her neck when she revealed to me Maggie Evans was alive, and safely in her care about one hundred miles away from Collinsport. She indicated Maggie was suffering a loss of memory, but her lack of memory would not be permanent should Doctor Hoffman not be around to keep the memories suppressed.

Maggie... I admit to a sense of relief regarding Maggie's continued existence, yet I am terrified by the possibility of her complete recovery. Julia Hoffman was spared for the time being.

This was fortunate, because I have once again been thwarted by the ghost of my beloved sister. Judging by what Maggie has indicated to others, she was given an opportunity to escape from the distant hospital by Sara, and was lead by my sister back to Collinsport. It was a truly monstrous experience for me to be at the Blue Whale Tavern with others when Maggie walked in clutching Sara's doll. I was at a complete loss for words, yet I recovered enough to hide my surprise and call an ambulance.

Doctor Hoffman rushed to Doctor Woodard's office. Maggie was hypnotized only a moment before she revealed to Woodard my involvement in her recent kidnapping, and all memories of what I had orchestrated those many weeks ago were completely suppressed.

Naturally, I failed to believe Doctor Hoffman was completely successful, and I went to Maggie's house to investigate the matter myself. After a brief discourse with Miss Evans, I decided that I was once again taking too great a chance with her continued existence. I visited her room later in the evening with the intention of killing her, but was halted by the disembodied presence of my sister. I can not articulate how chilling it was to hear her singing quietly from somewhere outside Maggie's room. I immediately moved to find my dear sister, and was once again disappointed by the results of my search.

Sara... I'm not quite sure what to feel about her presence. I can not blame her for standing in my way. She was a truly exquisite creature, and I would never be surprised by any effort made on her part to prevent others from coming to harm. Yet, it seems she has become a thorn in my side. My resentment and my love for her are in constant opposition with each other. Julia Hoffman has pointed out to me my recent return to Collinsport may have triggered her return as a ghost.

It was indicated to me some time ago by Ambassador Kosh my sister might have always watched over me, even when I was locked within my coffin. I'm not sure what to believe at this moment. It does not matter. What is important for the moment is that the ghost of my sister has had discourse with others. I am worried about what she might reveal, especially considering how determined Burke Devlin has become of late to investigate me.

Oh yes, I almost forgot about Mister Devlin. He has proposed engagement to Victoria Winters, and she has accepted. More than anything, this has forced me to seriously consider the success of Doctor Hoffman's experiments. Devlin is a vulgar miscreant, and I will see that Vicki learns who is most deserving of her affections.
