Jan 1. Sun. Gray day - and I've been inside all day. Slept late (and well) and after breakfast &c. put away my Xmas things and "slicked up" generally. About 12:15 or so had a call from Grace Dowling. She looks very well (and was dressed well, too) and was entertaining, as usual. Wants me to go to Indian Lake in the Adirondacks next summer - She told me about her last sum- mer's experiences there. I got dressed and read J. Conrad's new book and ate Frank's
candy till dinner and very shortly after that Edith came. I showed her all my things and we were upstairs talking when Mary and Nellie came. Mary brought me calendar (W.F.) for a birth New Years present and Mother a little bowl for the cats milk (also worlds fair sample) I gave each of the girls one of my Metropolitan portfolio pictures We talked till dusk when I lighted all 4 candles (it made the room look so pretty) and Charlotte and Hamilton came! Then we came down stairs of course and had more visit. Chat & the Skipper told me how delighted Miss Crichton was with her "postal for "Jack"
!"
