Transcription Notes
Breakfas early & took 9 train to Camden — a very cold morning but fine though very slippery. Saw Mr Clark for a while & was left to go through records myself. All right except Merry Conceit which must be done again. Mr C disappeared & left me with Mr Harold D Smith to whom I explained what I thought of the Victor people generally! He was nice & polite. Train very late & did not get back till 6 when I found letters confirming my engagements at Kalamazoo, Cincinnati & Pittsburgh much to my delight. Held exam for C[ountry] D[ance]’s — two candidates whom I did not plough but postponed. Took a long & enthusiastic class of members & taught them Black Nag, Grimstock & Chestnut. They all seemed very pleased. Had drinks afterwards with the Grays & Chilton. The latter told many funny stories especially "One toot & yer oot". Home rather late & very glad to get to bed. Weather very fierce.Location
