Jan 1. Mon. Another lovely winter day – Good sleighing and all that – like yesterday – Got up betimes so Mother could go to 9:30 prayers meeting – & spent the morning fixing my green flannel waist watching the “Knights” & people go to the Orphan Asylum. Mary was up a little while – Edith was up yesterday, while I was at church and said her Aunt Martha died Saturday this p.m. Mary & I went to see “His Excellency the Governor” – a clever & delightfully acted little comedy. Ethel Barrymore was in it – as charming as ever – and other actors equally good. Came home & got into my wrapper & bega read The Jessamy Bride” – Mary Strong gave Claude – very good. We heard from Con yesterday. It’s all he can do to keep from marrying his old sweet heart & he's evidently enjoying life out there. This has been a happy day & I love my home and family & my cozy room and the whole cozy house. I ought to be a “contented woman” in spite of the troubles – little & big that now & then arise — and I mean to be.
