all dark but the old lantern in the prow - and a must magnificent display of
fire- works - lasting over an hour - a good deal - We didn't leave there till
after twelve & got up on the hill about one. Then had supper, sewed on
buttons &c. and got into bed well after two!
Oct. 10. Sun.
Heavy fog this morning - so heavy that I couldn't take
the new
Bayer house & garden to say nothing of the family. Had
about 3 1/2 hours sleep last night, ate breakfast with Eo & Frank & afterward
Ruth, & then went to the station &
got the 8:55 train for Glens Falls. Arriving about an hour
earlier than on the trolley - as planned. The ride was beautiful, as the sun came
out finally & the foliage was gorgeous.
Mrs Braley & Gertrude were not quite dressed & the others were at church. I
told them that I had not "officially" arrived & went to bed & had a
nice nap before dinner - which was
delicious. Frances has
grown into a very pretty girl and Donald a
nice 11 - year old boy. It was really a hot afternoon - we started right after
dinner. Mr & Mrs.
B.Trudy & I with "[illegible]" & drove
down the fine new boulevard (just oiled) to the lake - 9 or 10 miles
- a most lovely drive too - especially up beyond
French Mountain, past "Bloody Pond" (of an
Indian Massacre) &c. Then we saw the lovely lake and went across
the right or eastern side & up to "Crosbyside" where
Mary Mac enjoyed two vacations at Holiday
