Car to Nenner for chain fitting + anti-freeze.
Letter from F.R. [Frank Rehn] – a heartening letter about the show, (but scarcely any sales.)
Day spent on odd jobs about study – Some cleaning up in yard, putting away benches etc., a partly cloudy cold brilliant day with dramatic “sun-behind cloud effects” I seem to be dead artistically.
