Transcription Notes
Have a long talk with Purcell at breakfast. Train is _ hour late and pulls in to the station at 9.30. The fool of a taxi-man took me half round Chicago trying to find my hotel so that I did not arrive till 10.30. Maud was out taking a class so I did not see her till after I had bathed and shaved. Our new rooms are a great improvement on those at the Elms. We stroll out before lunch and I get a new pipe. We sit on a seat facing the lake and let the strong but soft wind blow over us — it was just lovely. After lunch have a long sleep which I wanted very badly — and then to correspondence — Miss de Long, Miss Boutelle and Constance etc. Have a nice quiet dinner and so to bed fairly early.Location
