Notes and topics
Sorry her interview wasn't more successful. Encloses Granny's letter [not there]. Aristocrats. Made great friends with old American lady, Mrs. Webb [Welb?] Granny's à priori style: "It is useless to say 'well, but it is so', when she has proved à priori that it can't be." Marble faun. Dined in three languages; the monsignor next to him couldn't believe he was a teatotaller. His aunt's way of seeing things. Hasty generalizations on Italians. German medical acquaintance knows Sigwart intimately, BR's favourite among modern German philosophers; trying to impress him—also discussing Weissman. Three more days till Paris meeting.
[Teetotaller]
