Wednesday 31st March 1943

Some patients are moving to another hospital tomorrow – the black sergeant, Gasasiui, B'skui L'touku, and (alas!) the great Rampeli M'swani, ie Ghandi. Joe Louis and Ghandi will be a definite loss. The Chief has been no trouble lately, but as humorous as ever.

The day's events may be summed up by the line: “Slow on your dials the shadows creep.”
