Transcription Notes
A soaking wet day — the very first of the kind we have experienced in the mountains. Wiseacres predict the rain may last for 2 or 3 days. Heaven forbid for we mean to go to Hyden in the Mail Hack tomorrow and rain would stop us. We have a very difficult trip in front of us, Hyden & Pine Mountain: both cross-country journeys very difficult and arduous, and with wet weather almost impossible. I finish my songs in the morning and the 12 are now completed except for final writing out & revision which I hope I may do at Asheville. It is curious job writing a book in hotels. This is the second I have essayed in this way! Much packing in the afternoon as we shall not see our trunks again for 3 weeks at Pineville, whither we shall express[?] this directly we find we can get through to Pine Mountain from Hyden.Location
