Transcript
  • Sept 14 Tuesday Warmer, & sunny. In morning 5 pages of Belisarius , (starting chapter 10) and going over yesterday's work, adding another page. I have a lazy habit of writing in bed in my dressing-gown. Ethel came: talking. The most tiring person woman I know. I took her for a walk to get her at least into out of a confined space. She talked & talked about constipation, bree, communication in the ether (I said, afterwards, I was nearly asphyxiated; because L. called her, afterwards, Ether Herdman), Mallik & his conflict-theory try-out in Nepal. She came as a sort of emissary of M. who is finishing his philosophy book & will then retire to the mountains, having done his duty by the race. We took Ether to Guildford, & then Margaret Russell & Leonard came and was perfectly sweet, with yarns about the Woods. * Nyon agreement signed.
