wrote letter and read "The Hon. Peter Sterling" - a very interesting book which I have also devoted my few spare even- ings to this week. It's one Wiltsie had at Ogunquit, Mrs Field, Miss Dennis read & liked it and when I got home I found Geo. Humphrey had lent it to Papa. Helen Davis came over late this p.m. and staid to tea & till 8 or so. She looked very sweet in her green dimity and white collar and pretty little hat. We talked Maine & Boston & "Jewel's" and gymnastics & so on. She has an offer to go to Grand Rapids. Thinks its pretty far. Mon. Aug. 17. Frederica came Saturday so I went down to see her tonight and called Edith & I spent most of the evening there, learning about Stony Lake & the girls (I'm glad I didn't go - dear Ogunquit!) Tues. Aug. 18. Finished "Peter Stirling" tonight. A very enjoyable book - "a subtle defence of Tammany" Geo. Humphrey says - It may be so. I got a pretty little book of blue prints ready to send to Miss Iles too - "Chollie" Wed. Aug. 19. Had a lovely letter from Alice today returning the photographs, with which they are all delighted. I had 8 dozen and not a failure - but Bunnell lost 3 negatives and the ones Alice & Mrs. Perrin tried to take were failures because they didn't press the button. Had a chat with Lura in the street. Met some "Wilburs". &c.
