Corrected and inserted Karl's typed pieces and sent off long letter to Fuller enclosing the First Auction pages . Went over Christmas poem once more, breaking it up into 4-line stanzas. Went over Advice to Story-Tellers now The Devil's Advice to Story-Tellers . Drizzling all afternoon. To Posada, brought back syringia and gave key to Miguel asking him to arrange for Pepe's men to colocar the maderos . Reading Burdekin's book after Laura. News that dock strike settled.
