Notes and topics

From Edith Russell's transcription when she was Edith Finch:

"Well Peter has neither your tact or intelligence.... Yesterday again she was answering all questions addressed to Bertie and explaining his views on all subjects while he sat by. But I have grown fond of her.... He was however, determined she should not accompany him to NY tomorrow for his interview with the President of City College, or arrive at Cambridge with him tomorrow evening.... The Russells hope much that the negotiations will fall through and they be left to take an apartment for the winter as they originally preferred, working out a permanent modest establishment at their leisure. So we spent yesterday seeing apartments along the main line with them. Bertie who is eternally hopeful and docile liking each one in turn and P's plans for it."
