Transcription Notes
Motored out again to N. B. Chisholm. (He was christened Nebuchanezzar but his uncle told his father that was a "mean Jew’s name", so he had it officially altered to Napoleon Buonaparte — he is now known as "Nep"). Spent several hours there from 11 to 3.30 having dinner there and got plenty of songs. A very tiring & hot walk home again but fortunately got a lift in a motor given us by a stranger, one Todd! Quiet evening & early to bed after writing out some of my songs.Location
