these few weeks & Martha is
evidently mightily pleased. Con is
still one of the problems to be solved. He "keeps me guessing", to use
his own expression - but he's good fun meantime. It rained
yestereday but today has been simply gorgeous. I staid downtown
shopping - got a new (stunning) green silk waist and trimmings for my
pretty new - greenish brown poplin dress. Lunched with Matie & discussed the wedding (now to be
at home) of course. Tonight I've been finishing "The Choir
Invisble".
Claude & I have formed another
"Literary Syndicate" with Jno. Dumont - on the Bungalow.
Sept. 18. SaturdayClaude invited me to ride this p.m. but I
didn't. I have shopped & read ("Sense & Sensibility")
and etc. all this week. Thursday I went up
to supper with
Matie & we went to the theatre in the
evening to see "Old Innocence" which is the American
version of the same play that "A Pair of Spectacles" is the
English of - Claude came home with me -
dear boy. I'm hunting a "Winged Victory" for Ned's wedding present.
Sept. 19. Sunday
Today the "Twelve Perfects" were going to
have a "run" but it rained when I got up and I
thought it would be a rainy day.
Mama went to
church and I took "the boys" (Papa's &
Claude's) pictures on our vine draped front piazza. Then I
went upstairs & sat in my window-corner reading, when the girls
arrived (Mabel,
Matie, Edith &
Ned) for me to go riding!
