First, we went to the Little Carnegie Cinema to see Woody Allan's Sleeper. We all thought it was very funny. After the movie, we went to the Russian Tea Room for dinner for Joy's birthday. The food was very disappointing.

The woman in the Country Kitchen store introduced us when she was having trouble understanding what I wanted. For dinner, we made beef lo mein, red wine sauce chicken, kung pao shrimp, dry-fried string beans and walnut date soup for dessert. They both slept over. Rosemary left after breakfast on Thursday.,Original entry title: Rosemary and Alison 2 19 29 74]]> They came over for dinner and to see our new apartment.

We also had a green salad. And for dessert, baked apple with whipped cream. The Marilyn Monroe t-shirt Jon is wearing is one he just made. He said he is going to make me two t-shirts, one with Cathy on it, and another with Gertrude Stein on it.,Original entry title: Joy and Jon 3 3 74]]> Originally in caption: 1974-03-05 (roll date, image #21A)]]> Jay Walsh is one of the lawyers for Helen Batchler (see August 20, 1973). Both of the lawers discussed are associates in this particular case involving Joseph Cornell's estate. They both had come to see if I could help them by providing information about Joseph Cornell's relationship with his family and his intentions for his work, and about his understanding of the legality and nature of some of his expectations. The problem is that the estate is a charity trust. And the trust is trying to take the works that Cornell's sisters and niece had in their possession. The trust was trying to prove that the works weren't gifts but were being stored for safekeeping. Jay Walsh was trying to prove the opposite.,Original entry title: Jay Walsh 3 7 74]]> Alison came to pose for Cathy.

Far too many of the same people wearing different sets of clothes appear on this date. Somehow there is a discrepancy regarding the "roll date" of these images. Because photo in this entry is conspicuously numbered "#17" and was posted on site only two entries after "A Get-together. 4 of 4" That photo was originally dated "1974-03-25 (roll date, image # 16)" but then I redated it (along with the other two photos/entries in the series) to March 9, 1974 so that it would match the "A Get-together. 1 of 4" that displayed the date of the event as March 9th. Because this is image #17 from that roll, I am guessing that this entry could have taken place on the day after "A Get-together". So I dated it 3/10/74. For the other photos in the Visitors section that are dated 3/25/74, I will be making an educated guess on the sequence of images between March 9 and March 25. This guess will be based on the roll image number and other clues in the photos (such as clothing discrepancies, day/night lighting conditions, which meal of the day, etc.)]]> originally in the caption: 1974-03-25 (roll date, image #30)]]> Originally in the caption: 1974-03-25 (roll date, image #36)]]> Originally in the caption: 1974-03-25 (roll date, image #24)]]> Originally in the caption: 1974-03-25 (roll date, image #18)]]> Originally in the caption: 1974-03-25 (roll date, image #35)]]> 1974-03-25 (roll date, image #26)]]> Originally in the caption: 1974-03-25 (roll date, image #19)]]> Originally from caption: 1974-04-23 (roll date, image #27A)]]> Originally in caption: 1974-04-23 (roll date, image #22A)]]> Originally in caption: 1974-04-23 (roll date, image #2A)]]> Originally in the caption: 1974-04-23 (roll date, image #20A)]]> Originally in caption: 1974-04-23 (roll date, image #28A)]]> Originally in caption: 1974-04-23 (roll date, image #25A)]]> Originally in the caption: 1974-04-23 (roll date, image #13A)]]> Originally in the caption: 1974-04-23 (roll date, image #3A)]]> Originally in the caption: 1974-04-23 (roll date, image #29A)]]> Originally in Caption: 1974-04-23 (roll date, image #19A)]]> Jon and Joy came over to see Kay and Frank and Betty and Jack and Ben and Katie.
