Transcription Notes
Miss Dickey breakfasted with us at 8 p.m. Headache much better thank goodness. A man spoke in the morning upon cheese factories in the mountains — a very good address & useful. Then we were called on again and spoke & sang for nearly an hour, extending my remarks of yesterday. Miss Ollie Henricks and Miss Rich of White Rock lunched with us. Then I had a long talk with Miss Goodrich whom I like very much, and many conversations with various principals of schools & colleges all of whom asked us to give them a visit for collecting purposes. Had a long talk with Campbell and decided to go first to Sevierville (Mr Storey) and then to Cumberland Gap (Dr. Hubble) Pineville, Manchester & Oneida. In the evening M[aud] & I attended mountain fiddlers convention — a most amusing & interesting affair making friends with a delightful old fiddler, W. Julian & Master of Cer[emonies] Frank Murphy. Weather getting quite cold again. Said good byes & to bed.Location
