Transcript
  • Monday May 13 Proofs of Progress of Stories most of day. Have nearly finished picture pasting. Wire to Eddie Marsh about not coming to London and long letter. Laura wrote to Constable about Epilogue etc. Painted with black enamel top of inking slab; of sort cabinet; my file, the paper chest. Letter from Arthur Barker about List [Verlag] : who in his latest quarterly returns only admits having sold 1800 copies — having boasted the book was in its 10th edition. Eyes tired by proofs which have now gone over. At night Kurtz & Ferres to coffee at Ca'n Torrent: she goes tomorrow. Letter from John Aldridge Seems stuck at Place House as we here. Wire to Honor about bringing records. Trouble with Isabel.
