Jane Wolfe Diary Entry

Sunday, 27 December 1942

 

     

 

Well, we finally got to it over the breakfast table—Leffingwells [Roy and Rhea], Max [Max Schneider] and Jane. Their whole attitude: Down with 1003 [1003 S. Orange Grove Avenue], Nothing is right there, Down with Smith [Wilfred Talbot Smith]. Jealousy, jealousy, jealousy!

     

Maybe Jane needed this, for now I can fight harder for 1003. My own bumptious ego, by god, is asserting itself.

     

4 p.m. Up on knoll for last time—took me some time to quiet down. Roy criticises Smith, and at the same time preens his own ego with the fact that A.C. has entrusted him with Sworn-to-secrecy-SECRETS! Faithful Fido—and I am truly thankful A.C. has such faithfulness—he needs it.
