trustee's meeting, instead. This evening Ned
and Rose came up - Ned brought the Stony
Lake print I ordered. We had a nice time.
Rose told about their fun at "The
Shanty" there last summer. How Mr. Buell
was the
Sleeping Beauty in a tableau & how she played
"Captain Horn" and the boy threw her a bouquet of onions
inscribed "Compliments of Capt. Reynolds" - &c. When they
started home they found it was raining so borrowed umbrellas,
rubbers &c. I read a little.
Sept. 19. Sat.
Poured this morning when I got up and kept it up almost all day. J.G. had his gas log connected & we lighted up this
morning and
J.W. lit his wood fire. At noon I stopped
at Ned's (in the rain) but decided not
to stay down to lunch. At 5 o'clock Claude,
Ned & I went into a place on
Main St. to see the Vitascope - very funny 15¢ ad- mission & a "gent" with - a
flashy diamond stopped the performance while he ushered the "ladies"
in. We saw Loie Fuller dance which was very pretty indeed - (but
was it "Loie"? - I doubt it) and then
waves dashed and broke against a pier. Then some blacksmiths pounded
& drank &c. Then a "lady acrobat" performed on a trapeze. (that
was good too - the light and shadows) and then
May Irwin (life size & that is a
size) was kissed by a man - while both were talking
