blackness. Then past the red lights along the ditches of the new
water works - and at last - after going to all
the hotels - to Andrews - where the Dr.
helped us out & Mrs. A,
Mrs. Davidson & Edith
welcomed us and we sat down as usual to a delicious supper and an
evening visit. Then bed and sleep too. I didn't
ever wake up till 8:10 a.m.
Oct. 18 Sunday
The day was cloudy, tho' not rainy. Only an oc- casional peep of the
sun. We all went to church and heard a sick man from the Sanitorium preach. The Dr. and I did not stay to Sunday School, but
drove "Arbutus" (a rather frisky
four-year-old) to see patients - Mrs. Dick, up Main
St. a woman up near the cemetery (where I held a black cat &
watched another one conversing with some Plymouth Rock chickens). Then
down by the driving park & around the track past the barracks
where the Italians live who are working on the water works. Then
upon the hill and finally up & down & thro' gates & such ruts - to the scene of the new reservoir -
where we got out and walked up a muddy path to see the new digging
trenches in almost clear mud & water - such
a hopeless looking job. When we got back to the little shanty where
Arbutus was tied, the
Dr. had to scrap & wipe off my shoes for a long
time to make them at all presentable. After a difficult turning around of
the carriage we got stated for home and went flying.
