Sat Mch 2d.
Cold bothering a good deal but still hope to go to Phil tomorrow. Up pretty early and got some things done and ready for the young violinist. Called up the Art League and found out proper price.. Ten came but not he nor at all though I waited about all the morning. How awful that he should be an imposter with that nice face . Had to call up Mrs Ditson to tell her not to expect him.  For go  that on Wed I had a nice visit from Mary and John Elliot from Boston and on Thurs morn went out with John and showed him about Freunds. though F was not there Mrs M'Clennan has died quite sudenly . This reminds me of sev years ago.......   Was alone and in Jap cos when when Mr Boyden came had met at Guerin's.  Wanted to see Locke's drawing.  Went down to dinner much wrapped up and Glenny s came in afte I read Heredia aloud to our great satisfaction.  Wilkie sent lovely box of roses.....
SunMch. 3d.
Cold much worse when I woke and decided at once to give up Phila for this week . Too much to undertake new portrait thus. In bed all morn.  but how many comforts.  Got up and Anna made me good soup ad I sat and layamong the roses .. Perfect quiet .. the little wood fire all day .. and this sweet room my perfect lounge.. Could not even write but towards eve managed to do a note to W.L.W. for roses.  Anna made me evening meal and the Glenny's came in after I had ben up there for five minutes. Anna to church . I read aloud from my little pet Blind man's holidays. To bed pretty early. D came in for a while in aft. H a little better. Sent three telegrams.
