Frances Yates, Historian of the art, 1899

Sunday evening: at the practice room, write only 1899 and 1981 for Frances Yates on the log. Put “Historian of the art” under Frances Yates. At one line, count 1981 once. Do not write a diagnosis beside Frances Yates. Leave 1899 and Historian of the art at the practice room.
