“A prodigious sick headache compelled me to lie late, & to come uptown early, so I betook myself to Academy of Music for Philharmonic rehearsal. In our box were Mrs. Thorndyke, Miss Delprat, Ellie, Vinton, & the boys. Tannhäuser overture—overture to “Prinzessin Ilse” (Erdmannshöfer), & the magical wonderful seventh symphony. Long meeting of directors thereafter.”
