- Ap 23 Friday. Anita wrote: Senor of the Padrissa had phoned, she did not know from where, asking if they had sent the documents proving that Juan of the Moli had not traded in contraband oranges. She said yes. She asked if G. was in the same place as Juan . The Senor of Sa Pedrissa replied “No, elsewhere & I believe he will be released this week.” Also a reassuring letter wire from Maisie. Honor has lost her maid Grace & therefore has not written: all well there. Laura bought some yellow linen for a ¾ coat & skirt (4 yards for £1) & wore Honor's black garnet Christmas buckles on red ribbon as wristlets for the first time. Her new Italian Straw hat a success. Ghost . Schools until late. Have reached (typed) page 70. Wrote Nancy sending £60 – enough until August, now. Found a new path down from Gentillino through woods, with wild single narcissus.
