Thank you both for your help! I really appreciate it!  :)

I think we have most of the first image now, but still quite a bit of the Jan 1940 note missing.

The first image so far:
21 September 1939: There is no change in this patient’s condition. She is still depressed, mute, and dirty in her habits.
21 October 1939: She is still mute with no interests
4 November 1939: Admitted to Ward 16 Annexe.
21 November 1939: She is dull, stuporous and {?}. Will not give any account of herself or show any interest. Dirty habits, mod. health.
21 December 1939: She shows no appreciable mental change
20 January 1940: She is dull, stuporous and exceptionally [?]. She can give no account of herself in [?]. Her habits are faulty. Mod. health.
24 January 1940: Sinus behind left ear leading into middle ear from broken down mastoid. {?} Some discharge.
22 February 1940: Dull {demented?} is in bed. Fairly clean, shows no change.


Any help from anyone is greatly appreciated!  :)
