Which sentence correctly uses the semicolon? (it was already late in the evening; and i wanted to go to bed.) there was no reason to stay awake, since we knew that the power would not come back on until the morning. (it had been a most unpleasant coincidence that the power outage had come when we had guests staying over; the entire house was full.)
