Transcription Notes
Weather very dull & showery. Classes as usual though unhappily we have lost 2 of our men Gowing and Wheeler. This reduces us to 3 which means I have to dance a good deal. The staff entertain Miss Skovill & Rabold to dinner — later Mrs Storrow just arrived from Boston, joins us. We have an English dinner, roast fowl, bread sauce etc! Lily made up a folk dance menu rather cleverly in which the fowl appeared as "Roast Black Nag". All very good fooling. Nice to have Mrs Storrow back again. Mrs Peabody has joined her daughters. I lecture on Modes etc in the late afternoon.Location
