Notes and topics

*"9.45 a.m." Alys to be interviewed by his people. "I am glad I have kept thee thoroughly informed of my people's ways and thoughts, otherwise thee might be taken in by this air of holiness and by their perpetual plausibility and power of making certain scores in argument." Has grown to dislike the brutal society of men and like society of almost all women—especially Americans. Alys overworking. "I have overworked myself to a sufficient extent to be for two months unable to follow the simplest train of reasoning and fearing all the while my intellect might be permanently destroyed...." Scarcely contemplated marriage without children. Mercy he hasn't got to go to Germany.

*"Mardi" = Tuesday
