CHAPTER XXVII. Mina Harker’s Journal

How these papers have been placed in sequence will be made manifest in

the reading of them. All needless matters have been eliminated, so that

a history almost at variance with the possibilities of later-day belief

may stand forth as simple fact. There is throughout no statement of

past things wherein memory may err, for all the records chosen are

exactly contemporary, given from the standpoints and within the range

of knowledge of those who made them.
