Sun, 19 Dec 1943
Last night when D.B.B. and I were at J.F.'s he gave me Yen to pay out to the staff at the rate of 15Yen each. I knew of course about this a little time ago but we kept it a secret from the staff that is as best we could but C.C.R. had to talk and spoil things. However everyone was very grateful and I was joyfully received and a welcome visitor.
Actually this is the commencement of a much brighter Christmas than we had expected as things were looking very black for us all with no prospects of money or allowance.
