A stormy blustery day—snowing.
Working in studio on a small 1920 reconstructed picture.
Evening M & H in—cards etc. B had baked a Valentine cake, but everyone preferred pie with ice-cream.
M. said she’d had a letter from Carl Gartner, saying that he had had word from N.Y. that Clay Bartlett had bought two of my pictures.
