Transcript
  • Jan 4 Monday. Sam's birthday (German intervention in Spain getting more sinister. Talk of European war's imminence.) Feeling a bit better. Charles' extraordinary truculent phone-call & Peggy's sympathetic one. Nancy, who came up with Sam to aurist, told him off. Later he rang me up. I gave him a chance to apologise which he did not take so I rang off. Laura went to Dr. Wright's and with Nancy to Belleville, bringing Jenny's Follow the Sun bean. Read a little of Alan's novel. Sam stayed the night, Nancy at Betty Colquhour's. Dr. Wright's phone-call to N.N., Laura & Maisie also present: to say that Dr. Green-Armitage would take charge.
