Finished Almost Forgotten Times [Chapter] XXIX. Also an insert, in consequence of a letter from Richards: who also said that Morley was pleased. Went over part of Poets with Laura: & transcopied: sent off to Honor. Karl transcopied p 111-226 of Old Soldier Sahib but missed out some 60 ppwhich I did later, ready to send off. Unpleasant Irishwoman in bus. Gelat told us of very successful day. 29 witnesses, only 15 of which needed, escribiente in favour. 'Boy' Boi , the turpe torpe , gave evidence & gave away the whole show - meetings at the Médico 's house, where it was decided to plead in forma pauperis and share expenses; no prejudices from deposito etc. The escribiente said that a criminal action for conspiracy lay. Soon over now, we hope. Laura revising Michael Roberts 's anthology introduction in so far as it concerns us.
