5/29 "Charity Ball."

a minute. Only saw "Claude" & "Carlie". After dinner I read awhile. Then Edith came up and we sat on the piazza and talked and finally I walked home with her. It was so lovely outdoors. And took the car home. May 29. Mon. Cloudy today and grew colder. So I rode home at noon for a coat. Good thing I did, too, for it poured at night. Just as it did last Decoration Day. Went to the Lyceum & saw the new stock Co. in "The Charity Ball" The Bakers & Laura & Frank Trapp were there. May 30. Tues. Much to everyone's surprise, it was a beautiful morning. I went down and opened the mail for J.G. and saw J.W. about my vacation and Flack was there a little while - but went to Niagara Falls later. Came out of the building just in time to see the procession - very good - half an hour going past. There were 33 wagon - load of flowers! Rode around thro' Alexander St. & down Monroe. Met "Idy" and later the Skipper & Mr. Davis. & late still Mary Mac - with whom I walked over to Troup St. She was going to see a Miss King from the directory office - who is sick & whose place Mary is taking. After dinner (about 2:30) I got on Diana and rode down across Vincent St. bridge and the East Side boulevard (or rather, side path) to Summerville. The road was pretty bad in spots and the path not much better.
