Where do current experts stand on the Diary?

[caz]

Could it have been a rough draft meant to be written up all neat and tidy in a proper diary with maybricks hand writing copied properly

Possibly, Pinky. Who knows? Or maybe it was a private literary exercise, not meant for the public gaze, and some wag found it, read it and thought it would be a terrific wheeze to smuggle it into Battlecrease, in gleeful anticipation of the reaction when it was found?

I think his wife wrote it.

The saga of the diary takes a whole new meaning when you meet Mr Barrett i have met him a lot of times over the years he is a very interesting character but the impression you come away with is that he is not capable of forging this also no body in their right mind would get him involved in any scam .

Quite, no right minded person would frame barrett as the author.

How do you explain away the handwriting fooling one of the best handwriting experts of the 20th century, the arsenic deposits (or whatever they are), the lack of a signature?

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkaz.

If somebody found that in battlecrease and stole it and then had it stolen from them selves could make sense could explain everything really.

I am not an expert, but I would stand on the whole thing, so that I can reach "Lady Don't Fall Backwards" by Darcy Sarto.

Yes, I think that's probably what happened.

Heh. But could you stand on it though? Some say that if you lend it any weight it just crumbles.

Ah, but what would be the point, Robert, if the last page had been torn out?

Ah, Mr Apollo.

When I was a boy I had a compass, a penknife and a torch. I had no idea what to do with these things.

That's right Dave we do tend to forget the basics with the diary things like where has it been for over 100 years and how did it come into Mr barretts possession.

It was never anywhere for over a 100 years.

Grow up and get real.
