Charles E. Burchfield's Dreams, Journals, February 15, 1919

A Dream –We had been to the old dream-town over East.  Someone said we were to entrain for the town in waking hours. We call Albany. I could see the willow lined Beaver Creek wind northwards.  A train came along.  I had to cling to the outside of the coach somehow – but how did they expect me to do it?  Then we looked – “there is that town now” and indeed it was, [through] a framework of bulky dark trees & houses we saw a group of strange red & yellow houses.  They now had us lined up, standing at attention.  Next one was a chimpanzee.  The officer brought out a Victrola and said he would play us records to improve our taste.  I was amazed at the records the chimpanzee wanted played.
