- Aug 14 Sunday. Top of grandfather clock fell on my head, so humbled it by taking it to a stable for hens to nest in. Made a telephone-chair from one with a hole in and the top of a sundial (1726). David arrived, rather cross after a crowded crossing from Southampton. L & I talked to Montagu clarifying his problem: letting him see what the problem various parts of the question, sex, Mary, Dorothy, Home Office, 'serious work' looked like. He was still undecided. I sawed wood for the fires. Laura going over D's 'Sculpture'. Beryl offered an illegitimate baby at St. Uniac. Late at night L Alan & I had a dictionary consultation.
