Thursday, February 11th, 1915.

192nd day

In the course of the morning I received the following telegram from Violet Markham: "Jim and I are to be married St Margaret's by Dean Inge this morning 12.45 – give me your blessing". I sent her a suitable telegram.

There was a service in the Cathedral in connexion with Lord Londonderry's Funeral. The attendance was much smaller than I had anticipated. I attended a lecture by Professor Bridge on "Henry Purcell". It was both amusing & informing. A considerable audience was present.
