Creator Transcript
  • 6 After tea at the Mackenzie Robinson with Jim [J.D.] + Evie [Cowan] + a remote cousin Doddie Cowan, sister of Hugh Francis Cowan we went round to see our flat. Major I.B.C. Neilson has been able to clear the decks for us + says we can move in anytime. July 19. Explored the shops of Princes Street this morning + in the afternoon went to the Royal Scottish Museum. We were very favourably impressed with the latter + only got part way through the first hall (mammals). We are much struck by the squat build of so many of the Edinburgh Scots. Young + old thick ankles seem to be de rigeur. July 20. Went to church at St [Saint] Marys. Congregation small + service struck all of us as cold + lacking in conviction. This seems to arise from too much attention to choir. As a result many of the tunes are too complicated for congregation participation. In the afternoon tea'd with Jim + Evie. Nice day + we enjoyed the walk over. In the evening Aunt Alice + Dr Stevens called.
