1897.
June 19. Sat. Quite warm today - I decided not to go to Forest Lawn on my wheel with Helen Davis (she asked me to, yesterday). I spent half the afternoon curled up, upstairs - reading "Jerome" and then - wheeled down to Mary's for a little chat and then up to the Park where I sat two hours under an Elm by the river and finished "The Indiscretion of the Duchess". It rained a little bit. I went over for a chat with the deer, & then hurried home to supper. Found Ned had been here to say she had a ticket for "Carville" tonight (Jessie Bonstell) so I went. Met Con coming up, as I came down, and he got off his wheel & walked down with me. Nellie went too and the play was really very good indeed & if one can say any Carville is, after seeing Duse! The audience sobbed and sobbed again & we were very late. June 20. Sun. A lovely cool, breezy, morning - Was very lazy today and tho' Con came up & was pursuasive I didn't go riding at all but read &c. Con came back to dinner - after a flying trip around the bay & then we loafed till five o'clock - when he coaxed me up on the river where we got a boat with some oats "like dessert spoons" Con said & rowed way up beyond Ballantine's Bridge. Such a lovely afternon & such
