Sunday, January 9:
R. dreamed of an ink blot which he made on a page of the score, to his great annoyance; then it turned out that the score was not one of his. Morning prayers with the children, then to the ice with them.
R. has good news of Herr Unger; God grant that no disappointments will arise here! Mimi Schl. writes advising a petition from the management committee to the Reichstag; Bucher believes the mood to be favorable. In such a difficult situation, anyway, it is impossible to do more damage, since nothing helps.
R. is in despondent mood. I try to persuade him to start again on the biography tomorrow, and he promises. God forbid any obstacles!
