Transcription Notes
Woke up with headache again and feeling very seedy and good for nothing. Lie down all the morning and indeed till it was time to catch the train for Cumberland Gap — having sent a wire to Dr. Hubbell.1 We arrive at 6.45 and are met by a Mr. Claxton in a motor and driven up to the University where welcomed by Miss Buffon and given 2 very nice rooms next to each other. Have some dinner on arrival then taken to Auditorium to hear a Kentucky fiddler, Mr. Herd, and to lecture about songs. Broke down completely with bouts of coughing but manage to open up subject and interest students. Go to bed feeling very seedy but perhaps a little better.Location
