From transcribe
November 27 Monday 1916
At Parliament Bldg s in morning. To see my map now in press - very much disappointed - great deal of information not one & whole effect poor.
Reading Barrie's " Sentimental Tommy"
Going in the morning to see Gore - get $150 cheque from the Corporation - to moving picture "The Birth of an Nation", with Ada - very good, but a scroundelly orchestra raise a most infernal din - bad night as a result.
Dinner with the nurses - an awful ordeal. Spend afternoon at home & evening at the Hoakes. Returning car full of drunken & rowdy sailors & marines.
