Mrs. Cryan comes to see Franklin Gimson this morning. She complains that she left a pair of shorts to dry on a line, and on her return she found they'd been thrown into a corner with the zip fastener and the area around it cut out.
No-one has any idea who was the culprit, but Gimson feels that the crime is a symptom of the current 'extraordinarily low morale' of the camp. He has been warning about the deterioration of morale, and this is proof - albeit in an unexpected form - that he was right.
