Transcription Notes
After breakfast wrote letters to Percival Chubb, Miss Boutelle and Chas Boyd. Also to bank enclosing cheques for 172 and 25 [dollars], Miss Whitworth giving me $100 in cash. So after all I have not done badly this week. We took one 2 C[ountry] Dance] classes in the morning revising all the dances we have taught them this week viz Peascods, Bl[ack] Nag, Mage, Rufty, Hey Boys, Newcastle, Old Mole, Butterfly, Sweet Kate, Sellengers Round & We won’t go home. They did them all very nicely and I made a little speech of farewell. Back to hotel to lunch in our own rooms and then back again to take morris class from 3-4.30. In that class we have taught them Rigs, Bean Setting, Winster Reel, Helston & Tideswell processionals. Got back to tea at hotel at 5. Very tired. Then packed so that trunks can go off to-night. Miss Whitworth & Miss Rutherford came to dinner at the hotel and we had great sport criticizing the many students & teachers who have passed through our hands this week. They stayed talking till after 11 p.m. Awfully tired on going to bed.Location
