with the wind at one's back! We all dismounted & "discussed" when we came to the sign "To the Newport House" and then went on & missed Norton St. after all. We rested half an hour under a big tree at the foot of a hill & then went on uncertainly - till "The Forest House" (no forest in sight) appeared & the waters of the bay first over the hill! Also the bay rail- road - and as just then a train came along & the wind was strong going in we took the train - wheels & all - & had a nice ride in to North St. Station - only a little after 12 - but all rode home (3 miles or so) I rather enjoying the city ride thro' unfamiliar Streets. Found I had ridden only about 12 1/2 miles in all. Did my cash accounts & I had a nice bath before I dressed for dinner - which I did justice to - ice cream & all. Edith came soon afterward & later, Ned & Frederika & Mary - & all staid till nearly 6, when Trudy & I walked to Adams St. with them. I sent Miss Bradley's prints. Aug. 31. Monday Busy - & beautiful - day. A joy to ride this weather. Trudy slept with me last night. This evening she read aloud & Mama & I sewed. Sept. 1. Tuesday We all went to the "Black Hussar" (one of Clark's favorite parts!) tonight - 20 seats. 10 in G. and 10 in H. I sat between Gertrude & Mary with Emma & Ned next and the Davises in front.
