Woke (11.45 P.M. Saturday) from queer pleasant dreams, but still alarmed about intermittent pulse.

Took extra [Heroin] restored physically & morally.

Vive la France! Vive la France! . . . . seems possible. Wrote first stanza: see p. 1 of Memoranda supra. P.S. 2 A.M. Couldn’t stop—finished it, after a fashion.

1 o’c. To Fitzroy with letter offering 1000 T.U. [Thumbs Up!]

Old K & Charlie. All child very genial.

4-5 [Harold] Mortlake here.

B.B.C. Michel St. Denis doyen du Theatre Francais.

M.A.S. [Maurice A. Sutherland] to chess; somehow not very interesting. I have the V-sign on the brain!

P.J.’s birthday—I forgot it! Hell!
