Transcription Notes
Had a nasty restless and largely sleepless night although not much asthma. Get up after breakfast and dress and go downstairs to lunch. Feel very ill and thoroughly rotten in the afternoon, so after tea, take to my bed again where it is at any rate warmer. My temperature keeps down but I feel as though I were recovering from a long and bad illness. Feel rather better in the evening and put lights out at 9 p.m. Finish writing up my books when I am up. Read a good deal and doze and think and wonder how I am going to get out of this place and back to Asheville! Dictate description — or the beginning of it — of Running Set to Maud, when I am in bed in the evening.Location
