24 May/6 June 1914
Livadia

I had to search everywhere for Olga’s diary to see what she’s written about Prince Carol. (I found it hidden in the bathroom.) This is what I read:

 

I am a Russian and I will remain a Russian. I will never leave my country, even if it means that I do not marry.

 

I wonder what Mama will have to say to that!

When Olga makes up her mind to something, that’s the end of it. Now I suppose Papa and Mama will have to find her a suitable Russian, although I can’t think of any.
