supper. (Laura too) After supper Laura and I played Flinch and saw a lovely sunset on deck and then we all played 500 6-handed euchre. Arrived at Marquette rather late - after passing some islands &c We all took walks. Mrs. Foster, Mr. Mace and I ahead and the other 3 behind. Marquette is hilly and we kept climbing. Nothing was open but the saloons. While Mr. Mace and I were counting them the others lost Mr. Foster but we kept on around a block or two and when we got to 25 and nearly back to the boat we found him! The harbor looked very pretty by moonlight & electricity - also the island opposite. July 28 Thurs. A cool and cloudy morning. Immediately after breakfast we tied up at "Dollar Bay" in the copper regions - a most interesting place - with the dock piled up with copper in all forms and all colors of the rainbow - purple to brightest copper color. We had time to go in and watch a little of the smelting process but I had to take the picture I did as the steamer's whistle been - with a rather out landish result! Mr. Freidman was very polite and nice. He's from this region and told me about things. We watched them marking ingots. &c.
