I did indeed attend the Lockwood recital this evening and his talent far exceeded any previous recital of his that I have attended. He took the liberty of inviting some guests to perform and we were able to hear from Miss Seldon and Mr. Brown, who is also a great proficient in dance. Miss Lamont was rather tiresome, but perhaps a humourous anecdote to the evening. I could not have imagined a more entertaining evening.
I must rise again early on Friday, as Mr. Lowe is to return in order to establish flooring in the Ashford estate. I have not determined whether I shall be required beyond admitting him into the home, but as I will already be present, I will likely tend to the gardens and carriage house while he is about.
I pray dearly that the rainstorms that plagued us this evening (although rather fitting as they were), should hold off for at least the better part of the day on the morrow
