Sunday Ap 19.

Cold still.
We had a fire last night in the Mesquida.
Thomas Wyatt [sic: Wiatt] framed.
Finished the trial chapter1 (31 pp [pages]) but too messy for typing yet.
Cleaned it up late at night. There was a slight trouble with the light at Can Mado so they put on the jolty motor at the Fabrica.
First Midges this year.
