July 9. Sun.
Warm and muggy. Busy all
morning, writing &c. In the p.m. dressed up in white, sat on the
piazza & read Collier's & later Mother,
Father & I went up to Cro'nest
& drank iced tea with
Claude, Char,
Fred. Later
Mother & I took the car to the
orphan asylum
and had a nice
long visit with Miss Dine- hart,
who told us all her troubles &c. Showed us the cottages (I hadn't seen
the "Lella') &c. then we walked down to Davis's and spent a few minutes on the
piazza, and took the car home.
July 10-13 Tues-Thu.
These
days all more or less alike - hot, muggy and thunder - showery. Terribly
busy at the office in the day time & at home at night, Got the
music box fixed up fine. Read new & old
letters, Corresponded with Miss. G. and
relaxed very little, & Mother
less. The red room looks fine.
July 14 Fri.
A trifle cooler. Saw the National Co. (with
Laura) in "Trilby" - Fred'k Lewis made
a really fine Little Billee - tho' a trifle too broad
shouldered and Jessie a sweet Trilby
the last two
acts - but not the first two.
July 15. Sat.
Cooler today and a really
lovely p.m. But I worked hard till 5 o'clock
(Making apparently no impression on the blanks)
Phillips is here. Showed me Bless's
picture she's 13 and very pretty. At 5, I rode out
East Ave saw the Cory &
Sloan houses
