saw her & where &how &c.&c. her family - his
sister's objections, "Ma Knott" &c.&c. It was nice of him & I
was mightily interested in that and other things he told me of - some of
which - of course - I had known before.
June 15th Tuesday
Still lovely, but warmer. Showery this p.m. More dressmaker - noon
& night - supper & the Park at 7 where Ned, Nellie &
Edith expected me & they'd
had sandwiches & coffee & we rode the new cycle paths & "sat
beside the river - saw Frank Davis
& Harry Gould & lots of others - and
Con came along & sat down with
us and "jollied" Helen about
Will & I reclined on a
fragrant haycock till Con made me get off.
Finally we rode around the little circle again & the moon showed
it's red face a bit & then everyone must needs go home - but Ned, Nellie & Con stopped
here for lemonade & a game of Pedro -
in which
Ned & I beat after they were 34 to our
2! 11+ to bed.
June 16. Wed.
Busy & uneventful. Stopped to see Mary this noon. She's been sick 2 days. We had a little
"spoon" together & tonight ditto with Matie at G & McC's.
I stayed in (tho' the night was lovely) & washed dishes tonight
and after 8 rode down to Edith's. She
had gone to see "Clark &
Effie" & I had a nice visit
with Elsie on the piazza, &
Will told fishing stories
& wild-game-photograph stories etc. Got home about 9:30 & wrote
the rest of the evening - except to stop & chat with Claude after eleven!
