| |
1 | 22 Dec 1943 (first entry) | |
4 |
24 Dec 1943 (CE p. 145 has photo of this page)
| |
7 |
27 Dec 1944: pasted in Christmas package decorations from her first Christmas celebration, (CE p. 434 has photo of them)
| |
15 | 6 Jan 1944: pasted sheet in to expand the space to write in, making pages 15a and 15b. The somewhat famous girl-girl entry (Venus, Jacques). On the added sheet she writes of how she's not in love with Peter, just talks to him. | |
28-9 |
15 and 19 Jan 1944 (CE p. 146 has photo of these pages)
| |
50-1 | 8 Feb 1944: at the family's request, Anne's "representation of her parents' marriage" are omitted. (Approximately 2.5 pages.) I assume that re-writes of these may be among the excerpts revealed in 1998. See also the note on page 482 of The Critical Edition. | |
126 | 20 March 1944: briefly continued here, after p. 123, skipping a sheet, then crossing out what she had started and continuing her entry on page 124 as usual. | |
130-1 | 20 and 22 March 1944 (CE p. 147 has photo of these pages) | |
138 |
23 March 1944: after being confronted by Peter (who had thought they'd
had a joke on him), she writes about it. Upset, she signs
"Mary Anne Frank" (her middle name was Marie).
(CE p. 560 has photo of this page.)
| |
140 | 24 March 1944: after this page, she skipped a sheet, continuing on page 143. | |
141 | 24 March 1944: It appears that she put a note to tell the reader to go to the next sheet first. She continues writing on this page after filling page 143. | |
142 | Just puts a dash here. | |
143 | (Continued from page 140, then continues on back to p. 141.) | |
144 | (Continues from page 141.) | |
191 | 11 April 1944: pasted in note about the 9 April break in. This is in pencil and not in Anne's handwriting. It outlines what to be sure to tell Kleiman in a (risky) phone call. | |
203 | 17 April 1944 (last page of third diary) | |
extra 1-37 | 37 pages were used for Cady's Life. I don't know if Cady's Life was located at the end. I only illustrated it that way. | |
| (The question mark is only because it is possible that some pages were torn out for non-diary use.) |
