Cosima's Diaries

Diary Entry of March 14, 1872

Overview

R. passed a miserable night and was too ill to work, spending the day wrapped in blankets and mostly keeping indoors. The recent struggles over the schools law had a small consolation in L. Bucher’s promotion to privy councilor. A telegram from Pest reported that another concert had taken place there.

R. had a very wretched night; he will not be able to work! As a consequence of the recent battles over the schools law, our friend L. Bucher has been made a privy councillor, on which I congratulate him.

R. is very unwell, does not go out, and finally wraps himself in blankets. Telegram from Pest; they have again given a concert there.
