Transcript
  • June 6 Saturday Bartolomé making a bench with stones from the Can Mado oven. News came at 11 of the death of his aunt by cancer (Francisco the carpenter's wife) so he knocked off. Went to Margarita for my new trousers: not started, of course. Miguel brought framed picture of Toledo: & round table to Posada. Wrote four pages for Laura about Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides. To L.H. in answer to his: explaining my feelings. Still cold weather, no need for mosquito netting yet. One pear tree has only just begun to leaf. Flowers put in a week ago have all taken well. Abelins are leaving Deyá. Had 'stosia' dream.
