Tue โ€“ 14 May 35


Iโ€™m hearing voices โ€“ some, I think. Itโ€™s English Iโ€™m sure but Iโ€™m not able to understand it. Canโ€™t say why, maybe out of case Iโ€™m also unable to speak. I must be in a very strange physical condition. Until I know whatโ€™s happened Iโ€™m going to sleep now.

Wed โ€“ 15 May 35


Thought I woke up at midday, buzzling around cause of missing half the day but couldnโ€™t stand up. Wanted to go outside for some woodcutting stuff, but anyway couldnโ€™t move a single muscle โ€“ couldnโ€™t even feel. What Iโ€™m able to see, to watch at โ€“ NIL. But Iโ€™m still able to think and thatโ€™s really frustrating: a pulsing soul in a dead body โ€ฆ please, donโ€™t let it last too long!

Thu โ€“ 16 May 35


Still here โ€“ in an unbalanced sphere between life and death. Thatโ€™s not exactly what I was hoping for my last days. I was hoping for an early sudden death. Now itโ€™s early but not sudden. You never canโ€™t get anything you want at all!


Fri โ€“ 17 May 35


Today or what I may call today I could see slight shadows of purple light. There is also a sweet smell of melons and strawberries โ€“ very intensive. I wish I could have some once again.

Sat โ€“ 18 May 35


Canโ€™t remember on much in my life, maybe thatโ€™s fine. My body gets weaker every second and my brain isnโ€™t also the best. But there is still a glimmer of life in me. Iโ€™m asking why. I want to have rest at last, quietness, peace, darkness and release.

Oxford Mail

Sun โ€“ 19 May 35


The โ€œOxford Mailโ€ deeply regrets to announce that Lawrence of Arabia is dead. The end came shortly after 8 a.m.

Thus, in a motor cycle accident, perished the greatest mystery figure of modern times, the man who preferred to be known as T.E. Shaw rather than by the name that had become famous, the adventurer who joined the Royal Air Force in order to hide his identity from the public gaze, the glamorous Wartime leader on whose head the Turks put the price of ยฃ10,000.

Thus, too, perishes perhaps the greatest Oxford man of his time. As a boy he was a pupil of the Oxford High School. Later he went to Jesus College and was elected to a Demyship of Magdalen.

The distinguished Oxford physician, Sir E. Farquhar Buzzard, had been called into consultation. But all was of no avail. Lawrence of Arabia died at the age of 46 in the Military Hospital of Bovington Camp, Dorset.
