Two Guards-Civils came to Medico asking for local Fascist chief. He said there was none. 14 officers people killed at Pollensa & many carabineros including a Fascist officer. Menorca loyal to Government, also fleet, & air force. In Barcelona churches confiscated C.C. & Can-fusimain youth wish to go to Palma to help Fascist's. (Did not go. But Valenti the mason called up, the one married a few days ago) Alan painted length of balustrade, Bartolome making plaza near viejo camino . Catalina working for us for the moment. I painted Posada lavatory door but did not quite finish. Alan/did well-head. Troops came through at night in camions with cannon, shouting viva el Fascismo.
