- Thursday April 1 A poem Smoke in two drafts, and unexpected royalties of £200 from Barker. Claudius has in 3 years brought in about £8500. Money at present: £650 in Paris, £250 in London, £200 here. Going over Schools with Laura Reports of disorganization and attempted revolts behind Franco's lines, and a Government victory at Pozoblanco; and pressure on five other points.
