Well I am non-plussed. Had a suspicion since some time not a long one though, that some sort of a female is after my brother. It was her birthday, they said the 34th, which was held at the foaer (foyer?) a place near Kispest. We went to fetch her at their house. I nearly had a fit when she came.…

Late again for gymn. Dressmaker the innocent came of it. Found out that Emma is to have a baby. That is why she takes gymn so easy lately. Noticed since a time that she looks sort of bewildered and helpless. Much younger. Was asked to a party by dear brother for tomorrow.

A lot to do in the office, people coming in one after the other, sometimes three at the same time. Really we ought to have two offices, one for waiting. Gizi ‘phoned too, asking about this evenings invitation to Martha’s. Told her to expect the worse on account of building begin in … . … (sic!) Was…

We are very much upset. The Austrian president was forced to abdicate, Seyss Inquart asked the Germans to go into Austria. The man is mad. I don’t think I’m mistaken if I think his name will be coupled with the most appropriate adjective of traiter. Maybe though that he is only a tool in the hands…

Went to see Ami as tomorrow is her nameday. Her sister + s. in law were there a nephew + Sándor. She is leaving on next day. It was a cheerful little visit. Been invited to the xxx’s party Juli + relatives arrange from time to time. Of course I accepted with thanks, though the first had to be…

Too lazy to get up early, went to the noon mass. A good walk to the cemetery and the church which intrigued me since long. It looked quite near the East Station but was a quarter of an hour’s distance quite near the first cross road leading home. – Went to Martha’s party a bit tired, managed to be…

A mad day again. At noon I decided to ring Vin. up and inquire when am I to pay a visit in case he is put under arrest. The political association he wanted to join, Szálasi’s little party has been … …. and put under the supervision of the police. If Vin. didn’t mean it as a joke it was a silly idea…

What a dreadful day. I felt out of sorts the whole day, sort of a presentiment I suppose. Even yesterday’s aviation lecture didn’t keep me cheered up. By the way we received the photo taken of us. Leo rang me up in the morning, I wanted to talk to him from the office. I don’t think we were…

Didn’t get a card from L. so I don’t know if he went on that journey or I was late in ‘phoning him or L’ll write to day. Went to Martha’s party in the evening. I was most amused. When I arrived all the ladies exactly six of them, were sitting neatly one by the other like swallows on the telegraph…

Went to that carnival party after all. Répássy came to fetch me. Some friends of my brother were there too. We had quite a nice time. Came home at 2.30 a.m.
