Transcription Notes
Didn’t sleep over well and woke up with neuralgia over my right eye. Maud went out while I worked and later, when she returned, we did some letters together. The Rockford lecture is I am glad to say to come off next Tuesday and this will help me a good deal as it is a good fee. The Chicago Centre have invited me to their meeting next Monday. We may get up a class with them — Miss Olive[?] will let us have her studio — Miss Hinman’s old one — for 2.50 a night on Thursday, Friday or Saturday. Charlotte came in to tea at 3, but was called home again by telephone half an hour after arrival. Piano has not yet turned up and I am afraid I shall not now get it before Monday which is rather a nuisance! Heard from Paymaster General last night sending me Certificate form and Income Tax return to fill up. Also letter from Walford Davis. Went out with Maud in the afternoon and did some shopping. On return found my piano had arrived greatly to my delight. I have not had the private use of a piano in this way since I left England. In the evening after dinner I harmonize some "jig" tunes.Location
