- Jan 7th Better, recovering appetite: bad cough. Nancy wired “Have high temperature can you cope?” At Belleville gave J. instructions. * Final proofs of Trojan Ending went off. No head for work. Reading Goetz von Berchlingen. Bought, for 3/-, a pair of doeskin gloves with coloured cuffs & ribbons and a woollen cord joining them: “made by an Amerindian chief's woman daughter for a Hudson Bay trapper whom she then married. (trade silks) & 'given by him to the first white woman to reside in British Columbia.” The day of the German mass-attack at Madrid. I have lost about a stone of unnecessary weight.
