Footnotes1 Schenker’s diary for the 16th records: “An Frau Stirling Ultimatum!” (“To Mrs. Stirling, final notice!”). -- That for May 19 records: “Frau Stirling beharrt auf ihrem 1-Stunden-Standpunkt, den sie aus Geldschmutz! – seit ihrem Eintritt in mein Zimmer immer wieder geltend gemacht hat, auch dann noch wenn sie sich vom Segen des 2 Stunden-Systems überzeugt hat. Ihre Devise: besser kein Segen, als 120 fl. mehr zahlen!” (“Mrs. Stirling insists on her standpoint of one lesson per week, which – from monetary greed! – she has always insisted upon ever since she entered my room, even when she was convinced of the blessing of the two-lesson system. Her motto: better no blessing than to pay 120 florins more!”). |
