Notes and topics
An extract from a letter from Mabel Minturn Scott to her mother.
BR "knew nothing of it [Bagley Wood] between the time when they chose the site last August and the day he came back from a walking tour to find his clothes in the bureau drawers and his books on the shelves."
This extract was typed by Sheila Turcon from extracts from the diary of Mildred Minturn Scott. Those extracts were made by her daughter, Leslie Allison. The originals were in the possession of her brother and not seen by Turcon.
The diary extracts concern visits with BR in 1901. Minturn notes that BR has "a genius for definition" of words.
Record no.
