Transcription Notes
Called at 5.45. Callery came with the car at 6.30 & took me to the station where the train arrived to the tick. Maud [Karpeles] looks very well & delighted to be at the end of her journey. She brought a whiff of home with her and made me feel a bit homesick especially about Joan because she will miss Maud the most. We breakfasted here viewed our office at the Schenley Hotel & then walked on to Mrs Callery’s about 9. Back to the office at 11.30 and then again to Mrs C’s for lunch. I went to theatre at 3.30 & tried to teach fidler the tunes for the W[inter’s] T[ale] dances. He said they all sounded alike — which as he plays them was more or less true - & advised me to get a rag-time player! Back to the office for an hour & then to dress & clean up for dinner at my club. Class of E.F.D.S. from 8-10. Milk & biscuits at Mrs C’s walked home to bed very tired. A long & exciting day.Location
