Transcription Notes
After breakfast, singers begin to flock in as a result of last evening’s talk. First a Mr Nolan worker at the School who sings some and probably knows a good deal. Then 4 or 5 girls from whom I get something but not very much. This till lunch. Afterwards rest awhile as much as my cough will allow and then Miss Aldrich joins us at tea. We eat crackers from the Store here and marmalade a pot of which Miss A[ldrich] has given us. Maud & I then go out prospecting but get nothing — too weary to try very hard. Weather warm in day time but not unpleasantly so, and very cold at night. I use a double blanket and quilt which are none too much for warmth. Have a hot bath before going to bed. Find the scarce food rather trying. My cough is still troublesome and I have plenty of asthma.Location
