Transcript
  • Aug 21 Sat. Nancy phoned last night to say she was coming: sent a wire this morning that she couldn't. Difficult day. Laura not well but working on preface to her poems. Children out riding: until tea did not see them. Norman came. Wrote 4 pages of Chapter 6 with difficulty. In evening played games: children too tired, relapsed into magazines. David got angry & rushed away with Time when I did not want him to remove it.
