On Friday the [22xx] 11th we were escorted to Lady Innes' at Kenilworth a beautiful suburb
where we met a party of ladies at lunch. The rain descended in torrents as we came
from the train but we gathered our fine feathers about us and waded through the mud, to the
house which lay in beautiful grounds not far away. Lady Innes herself is a most gracious
charming woman and the lunch was indeed a feast of good things for the body and soul.
After lunch about 50 ladies came for tea and we did not get back to our hotel until dinner
We were tired out and as it was the first evening we had had, we gathered in the cozy
drawing room where a grate fire somewhat moderated the temperature and wrote letters.
The next day we were off on the same railroad to Plumstead where we were to lunch wit[h]
Mrs. Garret We went early in order to talk over the suffrage difficulties with her
and find a way out of them if possible. After lunch several people came in for tea a
and again it was late when we returned. The rain had stopped for a little while and
the sun tempted us to walk through the park and botanical garden to the hotel. We e[n]joyed
the process and the flora was mostly unfamiliar and much was very beautiful.
Coming out of the Garden we entered the Government Avenue which leads to the hotel.
We turned into our beds that Saturday night with tired bodies, but the satisfaction
of ours [that?] our program was now about finished and we could make some plans of
our own.
