- March 9th Saturday. Laura up and working on Troy story. 12 pp more of trial scene. Carpenter brought olive-wood mirror that Laura designed for me. I designed a long one for her. The blue borage is now out in the garden. Brought in a stock of dry wood in case it should rain. Bad headache: aspirin & to bed early. Gelat has ordered a bull-dog from Inca where the breed survives: Ca'Buey. The grandfather of the Soller baker was 'muy aficionado' and died in the bull-ring for excitement watching some of his dogs attacking a bull. As described they are like an English bull-dog but chestnut-coloured. Probably not so lumbering and under-jawed.
