Still sick in quarters. Finished reading K. Satomi’s Discovery of Japanese Idealism.

Tonight received Y470 from the Philippine Society to pay my dental bill. Of this amount, I have to pay back Y235 for which I signed a promissory note. However, I will try to fix it so as to have this canceled as I do not want to return to the Philippines as a debtor.

Talked to General Satō about this problem before going to bed tonight but did not get results.
