Transcription Notes
Go off to School again and spend morning there harmonizing chiefly on The Nightingale which is rather nice. Back to lunch at the Kensington by myself, Maud being ill in bed chiefly from the effects of the typhoid inoculation. After tea write out what I had harmonized of Nightingale and then dress for dinner at Mrs Storrows. We had asked Mrs Gibbs to dine with us but Mrs Storrows wanted us to dine with her so she telephoned Mrs Gibbs and arranged it that way. It was a very nice quiet evening, Mrs S motoring us there & back. But it was too large a party for me to get any private conversation with Mrs Storrows. Weather very bright but a cold east wind. Though Good Friday no one seems to make any difference. The shops are all open as on ordinary week days. Get home about 10.30. The war news is a little better today but the outcome of the great battle — this is the 8th day — is still in suspense. I find it very hard to sleep with thinking of it and have a good deal of neuralgia over my eye in consequence.Location
