- Palma Ap Monday Tuesday 7 Yesterday At the Feria a 10 centimo fortune-telling apparatus prophesied a small inheritance. I had never had one before & today it came: 1/70th residuary legatee of my paternal grandfather's estate trust fund for my Aunt Lily (born 1810 - died 1899) — £18.7shillings 0. Very tired. Drew pension; bought Laura old diamond and small-sapphire ring for 150 pesetas. Laura dictated letters to Karl. I went to Casas. Nothing. She bought me white socks & shoes. I bought myself black shoes. Visited pottery factory bought pots & under-pieces. Victorian dinner service of 61 pieces at Margarita Mateu's for 100 pesetas. In the evening saw the worst film ever filmed. Vanessa: a Hugh Walpole story with Robert Montgomery & Helen Hayes.
