Transcription Notes
Breakfast at 7. Called at the P.O. to get my camera, and then took a song off old Tweed — "it’s a wonder, a miracle, a wonder"! Then Maud and I walked over Sapling Gap to Big Laurel accompanied by a boy on a horse with our two suit cases dangling on either side — a goodly weight as mine contained the type writer! Miss Henricks was very nice & kind on our arrival. We called on Mrs Gasnold before dinner but failed to get anything of any value from her. Dr Packhard’s Miss Rich had dinner with us. Then Maud & I walked to Mrs Bishop’s without however getting anything. Wrote letters and did proofs in the evening.Location
