Part of the above should have been written to day
where it begins. A very warm day and to
finish the above, I'll just say the girls had
a royal time visiting. R came over as usual.
Joe and Samy came down too. They played piano,
Will the violin, girls sang, and all going
merrily but R says Will must and shall
go home with her and he went; but didn't want too.
Voltie ever since supper has been gone to
Dignums for lumber, came back about ten pm.
Harold Dignum sent me a lot of pictorial magazines.
