May 12 Painted pastel sketch of Clara Baldwin in Dr. Baker's hospital. 
She is a beautiful model.
Exhausted with her incessant chatter. She is the most sensuous little animal it has ever been my fortune to meet. Most unblushing so. No reticence of any kind and her mother encourages her in the calmest way possible.

The [[insertion]] assistant [[/insertion]] doctor, a young man, comes in to see & examine her. Her mother & I immediately get up & leave her alone, while he is there. Are sitting on an empty box in the dark entry waiting for him to finish. Undignified to say the least - I feel disgusted.
