Transcription Notes
Weather very cold again. Had a nasty ear-ache in the night but it is all right again. I suspect the damp wind yesterday gave it a chill. Wrote out a lot more tunes this morning and by lunch time had triumphantly reached the end of them about 330 altogether. Tomorrow I hope to begin a general revision and re-adjustment. After lunch wrote several letters to Schirmer, Constance, and Mrs Armstrong. After tea departed for my last Evanston grind. It was as usual terribly cold 5 below zero as I came home. It was really a very pleasant evening. They are nice people and just love Newcastle! I joined in with the best set at the end of the evening and did Newcastle 3 or 4 times over. I also taught them The Old Mole. Got my cheque 160 dollars after the class and arrived back at 11.30 a little earlier than usual — found a glass of milk & chicken sandwich awaiting me which was just what I wanted!Location
