Fri, 25 Sep 1942
Mum received $15 from the Relief Committee on account of herself and Mabel, principally to buy sugar.
Rumour that the troops from Shamshuipo are coming into the Prison; that the Germans on the Stalingrad front are in a chaotic state; that British (or Allies) have got into Caucausus via Iran.
We did garden over in morning – Dorothy, her Martin nephew ((either John or Peter)) and I. Then washed clothes and hair ((no shampoo or hot water, a sliver of Welfare poor soap)).
To Benediction in grotto in evening. Finished writing Chapter 6.
