Dear Claude told me not to wake Mother if she was asleep - and wouldn't let me go to that silent house with him tho' I begged. There he went in the gray light before dawn and fought his lonely fight.

I went to Claude early - before eight - we telephoned and put away a few things and talked and people came - dear Miss Alling and Susie Hoyt - and later Mrs. Watson
