Transcription Notes
Maud went off again to Hull House and left me continuing the revision of my tunes. I worked without cessation from 8.45 to 1.30. Maud returned late as she went to get tickets for Sunday. To day there are no mails, in or out or any shops open it being a high holiday — Washington’s Birthday! Went on at my tunes after an early tea and then with Maud to Cordon Club to dine with Miss Hall & two musicians from the Francis Parker School, Mr Prall and Mr Kinney, both very dull dogs of the usual professional musician of the second rate type. Rather an amusing dinner, notwithstanding! They came round to the classes at the Normal School and sat there till we finished at 10 p.m. Our last class there thank goodness. The students seemed to like it and said good bye very friendlily. I am afraid we did not do over much for them. Got home about 11 very tired as usual.Location
