Transcription Notes
Slept rather better when I got to sleep about midnight and did not burn my powder during the night — the first time for a long while. Get up slowly after breakfast. Maud goes off song hunting and I write letters to Neve, Miss Wells etc. Temperature still sub normal 97.7. Rather a dull day. Maud returns without any luck. In the afternoon I dictate the rest of the dance to her from my note book. This is a great relief to me to know that the dance is at last on paper. This dance is as valuable a piece of work as anything that I have done in the mountains. I may get some more figures to add but I do not think there is anything else to learn about it.Location
