July 15 Friday
Beautiful. The "12 Perfects" had a picnic
as guests of Mr. Burrows at the Yacht
Club House - Lura & Charlotte & Helen
Davis
didn't go - The rest did - and Agnes &
Claire Rogers & Mrs.
Davis (Mrs. W Weaver's friend). We
went down in the electric car - Edith
& I sat together - Mary &
Matie - Ned & Nellie &c.
At the Club House
Mr. Burrows was waiting for us. We had lunch there
(It being Ladies' Day) and then took an electric launch
down the river and up the river. By special request of
Capt. Burrows I sat in the bow with him - &
Matie A & Mabel & "Arthur"
Somebody (a friend of Claire's) the rest
sat aft. & the boat was plum-full. We had a delightful ride - &
lunch on board (but no coffee) The river was like glass &
Mabel said she "wasn't a bit sick".
We were on the river till half past nine or so and Mr. B.
send us to the car,
coming home. Ned sat on my lap part
of the way & then we sat 3 in a seat. I like
Burrows - he is so gentlemanly & thoughtful
& good-natured & he has such dark skin & such bright laughing
eyes. He seems to be fond of his sister-in-law
Mabel. He married the oldest Rogers
girl who died very soon aferward, some years ago.
