Transcription Notes
A very restless night and a baddish day, the fever coming back very amazingly in the afternoon again. However after 8 or 9 o’clock in the evening I feel a bit better and settle down for the night fairly hopeful. The symptoms are extraordinarily like those of my mountain attacks and I do not believe I am suffering from Grippe at all — I have no rheumatic pains for one thing and they are almost always there in my attacks of Grippe. My lips and ears are breaking out as before. Determine to cross examine Walker in the morning & see if I can get anything out of him but I am not sanguine. Letter from Constance today — dated Jan[uary] 8th, Maud getting one from Joan by same post dated 18th. As postmaster corroborates Constance’s date she made no mistake. The censor must have kept her letter a tremendous time. She wants money as I expected she would. So I got a cheque from Maud on London and will pay M[aud] back after Detroit & Urbana if I am well enough to manage them.Location
