Booba Yetta and Uncle Sam

Booba Yetta and Uncle Sam

E. [Edith Witriol -wife] came out of hospital on Saturday morning. Mum [Yetta Witriol] has been in bed at Sam’s [brother] since Saturday morning. Mum has been in bed at Sam’s since Saturday evening, and Sam himself is staying away from County Hall with a cold. It has been very cold, snowing on and off for the last three or four days. Writing this in the kitchen. E. resting upstairs, kids in hall/lounge. We celebrated the New Year by sleeping through its arrival. The children are delightful, though normally impish, and impery can be a strain, prolonged impery, day after day. They have both come in (after being told not to disturb daddy), M. taking stopper off ink-bottle. Have evicted them.
