On the evening of Monday, October 27, 1879, Denn closed his shop, retired to his apartment next door, donned a nightshirt, and went to bed. |
I knocked on the door, which brought the owner of the house out dressed in a nightshirt and shawl and carrying what I took to be a lighted reed. |
From the chest at the foot of my bed I unfolded a white cotton nightshirt and loose cotton pants that tied with a drawstring. |
Her slightly large nightshirt was slipping off one shoulder, her blonde curls all messed up. |
Her hair was in a damp bun, and she'd changed out of her nightshirt into jeans and a oversized t-shirt. |
The man, in nightshirt and nightcap, his splayed legs towards you, lies on a sheet pulled from the bed. |
