Transcription Notes
Frizzly Bill came in directly after breakfast and we had a long séance till 12 when we adjourned for a recess. As I feared he was practically no use. He is a poor singer and did not know even the words of a single ballad I asked for. Reputations are made here in the mountains as they are elsewhere on small foundations. Floyd Chandler sang Matty Grove very beautifully and he is but 15. Did not tackle Frizzly again after recess but dismissed him with 5 dollars as a solatium. In the aft[ernoon] arranged for luggage to be taken to Rocky Fork by Sol Shelton on Thursday, we preparing to walk over tomorrow.Location
