Transcript
  • Dec 26 Monday. We called the Doctor (Thèbault) for Marie: he said that she was not bad – too polite to accuse her of malingering. Leonie works one-handed and we still have Sidonie ( Mme Loyard) daily. Dictionary & some pages of last chapter of Swiss Ghost . Little work gets done: so much snow and housework. The black farm-dog (Sultan) came excitedly to Dorothy with a bleeding paw – it was a hedgehog which Beryl has adopted. It seems to be hibernating. Christmas pudding at night. Laura mostly on letters: beginning the Herods part of Lives of Wives .
