- Thursday, Sept 26th Catalina came. Magdalena can't come till Monday. Almost Forgotten Times [Chapter] XXXII finished. Letter from Liddell Hart agrees on getting on with Richards T.E. Lawrence book: will see Arnie early in October. Asked me to get my part typed: replied would wait till hearing definitely. Also letter from Richards thanking for Empresses & answering questions, which incorporated in text. Says has reached Burmah part (last 15 months of service). Enclosed hearty letter from Morley. Catalina & her sister doing arrears of washing. Things put back in wrong places. Yellow crocuses out in garden & algarroba blossom stinking. Walk this side of Calabat; brought back heather. Laura sent off Photography to Epilogue printers: tired & went to bed early. This morning police arrested two young men at Casa Siqui in connexion with a Palma crime — the assault of & robbery from a cashier of a silk factory at Santa Maria: one of the young men was the son of the factory owner & on bad terms with his father. A lot of homosexual stuff had been going on there, Gelat says. Karl had already suspected it.
