When I was dressed she stepped away from me, took up the cane, and returned it to the case. She closed the glass door and sat in the chair. She opened a drawer and took out a black book I recognized as the punishment log. She carefully wrote for several minutes, then turned and offered the book to me to sign. Her inaccurate entry read: “Barkley Simpkins, 12, received six strokes of the cane across his gym shorts as punishment for mild but continual misbehavior culminating in three demerits in this week. Punishment administered by Angela Craven, Assistant to the Headmaster.”
