Gallmeister zur Bahn gebracht; das Manuscript übergeben, gleichzeitig Brief an Cotta zur Post." ("Vrieslander and Gallmeister taken to the train; the manuscript handed over, at the same time letter to Cotta to the Post Office."). 3 Schenker's diary at OJ 3/1, p. 2277, August 31, 1920: "Mittags bei Turetzki: erhöhte Preise.

Floriz comes; says that he will travel to Hamburg the middle of the month; nothing more about concert plans."). |
