Transcription Notes
Mr Mitchell Wallin an old singer & fiddler came to see me in the morning. He was a bad singer and a very difficult fiddler to note from. In the afternoon went to Mrs Gasnell’s where Mrs Sands joined us. Both she & Mrs Gasnell sang and I got some very good songs indeed. A very fruitful day on the whole. In the evening the Gunters were to have come but for some reason didn’t show up. So we had a quiet talk. Miss Fish is very nice and we have become very friendly. She is really not at all old-maidish or prim but on the contrary a very hard & generous minded woman who is looking after the material wants of these people in her proper place.Location
