Transcription Notes
Go to the Ball room piano directly after breakfast and work away at my songs. I am not doing much good work on them — I suppose I am not in the right mood. To-day I worked at Sweet William and got out something. In the afternoon after tea went on working at the songs in my own room and began making a third copy of my tunes for my own use. I have learned most of them fairly well by now. Maud is not very well to-day and has been lying down since she got up in the morning. Wrote some more letters after tea. The proofs of my Running Set Tunes reached me this evening and I played them over after dinner. It has been very wet and muggy to-day and we have all felt woefully slack. I shall be quite ready to leave here on Wednesday if for no other reason than that I shall get a decent paper to read every day. Here we often get nothing at all, or at most The Lynchburgh & Roanoke papers — both utterly worthless. No one hear takes any intelligent interest in the war!Location
