Transcription Notes
Miss Helen Fish staying here, the sister of Edith Fish of Allan Stand who is to introduce me to some singers. She went off early after breakfast to tell her sister of my arrival. So Miss E. Fish arrived about lunch. She looks a very grim old maid but I dare say she isn’t. She took me to Granny Banks who has taken up religion lately and was rather impossible. I got one song from her. Then to Aunt Polly (Shelton) from whom I got 3 or 4 good songs, including a rare version of Earl Brand. Thoroughly satisfied with my first afternoon’s work.Location
