Transcription Notes
Had a terribly bad night coughing continuously from 10 p.m. — 2 a.m. Head & neuralgia still rather bad. The side of my face so sore I cannot touch it and the scalp of my head so tender that I cannot brush my silver locks! In the afternoon take down several songs from Miss May Ray and one more from Alice Parsons. Altogether this week I have noted 24 tunes some very fine ones, making 60 for first 2 weeks, which considering conditions is not so bad. More proofs which I sent back with a letter of some importance. In the evening dined downstairs met Mr. & Mrs Bryson. He was a Kittredge student and very interested in ballads. Then to bed at 7 p.m. very tired, slept till 8.30. Settled for the night at 10 p.m.Location
