Edith's at 5:30 - To try on my new dress skirt & half expecting to go - Harry & Ida & Will Wray did, but we didn't. Edith made me stay to tea, however & we sat on the steps till almost dark, when she walked up with me (We led Diana.) Stopped at Mary's and had a nice hour's chat on the piazza. Mary in white muslin & looking sweet. Then Edith walked up with me & took the car home. Aug 13. Tues. Lovely day. Papa went back to Oswego on the boat. Mary wanted me to ride to the Beach, but I persuaded her the park was better - and we rode out there about 7 - or before. Met Jack Ballagh riding in & he turned around & came with us. We sat on our "river bench" an hour, while he told us funny stories about his Keuka vacation & we told stories too. The river & the sky & the foliage were all beautiful and the autumn suggesting haze is beginning to be evident. It was a lovely spot. We rode back together in the late dusk and sat on Mary's piazza for a half-hour's visit before we came home. Read later. Aug. 14. Wed. A letter from Ned leads me to expect her today or tomorrow & Edith came in this p.m.
