- Aug 8 Monday Poems still: now done except for a last going-over by Laura. Showery: Laura in bed with a bad headache. We are all very bored with Modeste Beryl rescued a black kitten, (Barnado) from the farm – attacked by a dog & left out all night in the rain. Bought a fountain-pen filler through which & Beryl gave it milk & brandy. But it died. Laura's application for a carte d'identité went in. By general consent we stopped the nightly 7¼ gamble. Laura, got up, was stumped by a title to the Macedonian lives, went to bed again, had a bad night.
