“Extra C. M. A. rehearsal tonight at Trinity Chapel Schoolhouse. Very successful & encouraging. We decline the honor of Miss Sterling’s aid as alto in the Beethoven Mass. She is afflicted with airs. I have written to Mme. Michalesi-Krebs, mother of the nice little Miss Marie Krebs.”

“Call from Miss Sterling, to inquire whether her part was really filled. The young lady is most anxious to sing for us, as soon as she discovers we can do without her.”
