Trudy and I went out to South Park. Listened to the music, had ginger ale, and went over to the links where some professionals (Nichols & ) were playing a match and sat under a tree and watched them and the crowd following them. We came down So. Ave. way & stopped at the Lyceum for tickets and went tonight to see the Stewart Co's last performance - "Faust" which was very good. Miss Fassett was a charming Margareta. Theo & Meta were there & at the end Stewart made a speech & the chorus came on (in street clothes) to be thanked &c. &c. &c. July 29. Sun.

Papa went over to Davis' this p.m. Char & Claude are expected tonight. Got a postal from Kath Wilkinson - from Rome. July 30 Mon. Rather tired today. Claude & Char got back last night.

When the woodshed was all a blaze & soon after a thunderstorm. It was burned to
