forgot to say I saw Rose Mills & her
cousin yesterday - just returned from
Sidney. The rain spoilt the Behn's canopy of red, white & blue "Welcome Home!"
but it didn't spoil the flowers & things and about 4 the
wanderers returned - all well & happy & Anna with them -
also 11 trunks (they took 4). All the relatives were there to greet them
and I didn't see them till evening (to speak to them) when the
Orphan Asylum was illuminated
and the welcoming song and "Home Sweet Home" were sung. The
Capt.
gave Meta a birthday ball, coming
home and a big " cake with a German inscription on it. I was sick -
or miserable - all the afternoon - & after we got Theo's room fixed (he moved in today - our
new lodger) I sat by the grate fire & read. Also slept some on
the parlor divan. This evening I arranged my
Ogunquit blueprints &c.
Sept. 6. Sunday.
A finer day - clouds - sunshine - rain & cool breezes. Managed
to take a number of flashlight prints this a.m. & took Mary's down to her
before dinner. Staid 15 minutes or so, & she came to the corner
with me and we both had to run for a shower. After dinner I walked
down to Ned's, but she wasn't home.
