Transcription Notes
Went up to the University at 9.30 and taught the staff till 12 when we lunched at the Cafeteria. Then back to the hotel, Maud trying to get reservations for Sunday’s journey and meeting with the usual difficulties. Then back to the University where I interviewed a Mr William about German volksleider, Miss[?] Reckitt about folk-song books at the Library and then went to tea at the Kingsleys where I met Mr Brookes[?]. Mr & Mrs Ballantyne and others. After that I had a short talk with the President and then returned to the Hotel to dinner, Miss Morris joining us. At 8 there was a meeting of the Faculty Dance Club. They danced, some of them fairly well, but there were a lot of beginners and this made things rather difficult. I taught Mary & Dorothy and Maud [....?] Church Bells. Some one motored us home about 10.30. Weather beautifully fine but rather cold, though not so cold as yesterday.Location
