Transcription Notes
Weather still very chilly. Had a very bad night. It was noon before we arrived at N[ew] York instead of 9.26. Very annoying because in this way we lost a whole morning out of spare free time before school opens on Monday next. Had a bath & lunch and then went down town to the Consul about our passports for Newfoundland. Found it would be better to get them visa’d at Boston as visa only lasts 14 days. So had our passports renewed for 2 years. Filled up forms and promised to call tomorrow morning. Then called on Glenn, arranged with him to meet tomorrow afternoon. Subscribed for New Statesman at Brentano’s, bought some tea & then home to tea after calling at Meyrowitz’s about my glasses. Dined at Peg Woffington — "7 candles" alas is no more — and then home to write letters to Constance Ronald [Sharp], & others going to bed dead tired soon after 10. We are very comfortable in our rooms. my lumbago is not very bad but it is still there, invest in a belladonna plaster!Location
