Transcription Notes
Packed and said good bye after a 7 o’clock breakfast, and talked with Miss Schafer about Emma Hensley. She said she would accept her for 35 dollars, but that she must enter her name & pay 3 dollars down at once if she wanted to secure a place. Then went to Mrs Gentry and got several more ballads — making 30 in all — some splendid ones. Then wandered in the woods for a while & bought some bread & cheese for lunch & caught the 12.40 back to Asheville. Mr Campbell delighted to hear of our good luck. Wrote my tunes out in the evening before dinner & went to bed fairly early. Evening nice & cool.Location
