Transcription Notes
Went carefully through all the ballad tunes again with Mrs C[ampbell] and decided to take copies of them with me to put into my books etc. Started early in a trap to catch the 2.55 for St Louis, driving round the hill on the way to the station. The journey to Knoxville very beautiful indeed through the mountains & weather very warm Stayed 3 h[ours] at Knoxville, dined at the Atkin hotel and walked about the town, 6.30-9.40 when I boarded the train again, had a pipe & then turned in — very hot & stuffy. Train got stuck up in the night for some reason I have not been able to discover and made it impossible to sleep. In the morning heard we had lost 4_ hours in the business.Location
