I came, & Mother & me & Con & Edith Hillman sitting on Behn's piazza, where I joined them. Sat. July 16 Very beautiful day. Busy till 1:30! (J.W. as usual) Went to Mae Stull's this p.m. Stopped for Edith but didn't find her. Sat 5 minutes with Lulu Graves Hardenbrook - (literally raised from the dead, one might say) on their piazza. Say she feels "fine" (!) & automobiled last night & ate peanuts, watermelons & lemonade at 11 p.m.! In May she was resting on 14 pillows - having oxygen administered and her life given up by several doctors, including her husband!! Mae was packing to go South again for John to look at land in Virginia. Edith came later & we sat on the piazza & watched the lovely lake. After supper (which was delicious) we had to retire behind the screens, the mosquitoes were so voracious. Saw Alice
 & Lew Jones, little Marion
 - also a few fire works, as we walked to the car. Came home sleepy but the Hartigans whooped it up with talk laughter, piano &c. till 1:30!! Sun. July 17 A nice morning, but it grew very warm later. Got ready stocks &c. &c. for my vacation. Wrote letters &c. till I got "all her up".! After dinner lounged a little while with the Harpers Papa had brought from Cro'nest. After supper Edith came up on her wheel. We sat out door for coolth. Wrote a long time, later.
