　　CHAPTER THIRTEEN

　　COLIN

　　You never know what the weather will be like in England. Mary woke up in the middle of the night to the sound of rain. She laid in bed and thought, "Oh, the rain came because it knew I didn"t want it! I hope it stops by morning."

　　Mary laid in bed and listened to the sound of the rain and the wind on the moors. She couldn"t go hack to sleep. How loud the wind was! "The wind sounds just like someone lost outside and crying," she thought.

　　She had been lying in bed awake for one hour, when something made her sit up. She listened carefully. "It isn’t the wind," she said to herself. "I do hear someone crying. It"s the same sound as befog!"

　　Mary got out of bed and opened her door. She looked up and down the hall. She felt she had to solve the mystery of the crying. It seemed even stranger to her than the secret garden.

　　"I am going to find out what it is," she said. "Everyone is in bed and I don"t care what Mrs. Medlock says -- I don"t care!"
