DECEMBER 6TH

Antonio spends the day in driving from one village to another, trying to find a safe shelter for the X.s. At last, through the Bishop of Pienza, a hiding-place is found for them in a remote convent—and we take them there.

DECEMBER 7TH

Start evening classes for the elder refugee children, who have got beyond the elementary school stage: V. teaches them mathematics, physics and science; Signorina G., Italian and history; I, English and Latin. Life is returning to the medieval pattern: as the outside world is more and more cut off, we must learn, not only to produce our own food and spin and weave our own wool—but to provide teaching for the children, nursing for the sick, and shelter for the passer-by.
