was all settled. Papa was there a
little while and during the evening Mary and Emma Mac and late John and Amelie
Frey and
Mrs. Bemish came and gushed and gushed over it. The
lovely Boston Fern and pot of Ferns that I ordered for Gertrude's
present were there - and
looked very beautiful, I tho't.
Nov 2. Sun.
A beauteous day. I was very tired, but got up in time to pack before
breakfast and Papa went over to the
10:05 train with me. We got to
Syracuse at 12 - reading the new Scribner on
the way. Took the car up to James Street - and dear Claude
came out to meet me - and
Charlotte on the doorstep. Found all the
Wilkinsons and Miss
Peck inside arranging the lovely presents - a table of
silver - a table of gold lined things - silver & gold banded
glasses (from Fred) and a table of a beautiful blue Italian teaset (from
Miss Peck and the other Smith
college girls) and another table for a japanese salad set -
another for brass - (desk fittings &c.) and two others for odds
and ends of things - copper - Grueby - Rookwood.
The Tiffany lamp and so on - also books. 3 traveling clocks -
two huge brass jardiniers from
Mac Gonigle
and Arts and Crafts plates from
Harry. etc. etc. I spent an hour or so
in
was all settled. Papa was there a
