Tuesday, 8 July 1879

There is a comic correspondence with Bojidar. I write to him signing as Mother Couvelet and he replies to Mother Arnaud.
But the other Sunday with De Daillens I had the idea for the little letter that follows [Missing], which was sent off this evening copied out by a public scribe. This evening a curious article by L. Detroyat in L'Estafette.
I lunched at Mouzay's. Every time I go there I think of Cassagnac and that other lunch — returning from Russia. Today I committed the childishness of going to lean on the very spot on the balcony where we leaned together two years ago.
Madame Gavini came to collect Dina.
