Wiltsie & I. Then we walked
down to the P.O. and while waiting for the mail went up to
Mr. Cousin's high new house, overlooking sea and
land. We went all thro' it - and its 12 bedrooms. &c. Then came down
& waited for the mail - chatting with the
Day's, Mr. Lowell &c. &c.
regular country fashion - Miss Day knows the
Henry Moores. After dinner we did go fishing. Gurdon &
Wiltsie went 'round by the bluff and
Alice & I went up &
stopped for Mr. Lowell & the widow. We went down
on Lobster Point. The two ladies staid behind, watching us,
most of the time. I occupied the Point
with the 3 gentlemen, and MProf. Lord
came out there a little while. It was ebb tide and the fishing not
first class. I only caught a flounder - a little sea perch and a
horrid sculpin. Two flounders got away at the water's edge and another
took hook and all. Finally Alice
came down to fish and the widow to use her wiles, but Wiltsie was certainly a brick "a
diplomat" he called it coming home. We worked hard and I got tired this
p.m. A couple of breakers dashed upon me, too. We found it was hot
when we got on dry land again - only just in time to dress for
supper. In fact, Alice, Wiltsie & I were the last ones, as
usual - Alice skipped
