we went to The Art Institute till time to have lunch
there. Then to The Chicago Theater to hear "Sousa Band"
concert. Then in the stores some. Very tired to bed early.

Soon after lunch Winnie & I went out to see Louie
Bremner. It was a nice ride. She is quite well. It was
six oclock when we got home. I wrote to Fannie.
Thursday May 5th 1927
We went out to Austin to a church dinner. Winnie
stayed in the afternoon for a programe. I walked on
up to McCalls to see Warner. A good visit. He is not
able to walk yet. I found Winnie home when I got here.

I went down town early and had lunch before I
went out to Woolfs by Bus. Spent a pleasant afternoon
with them. Emma came to the station with me. I
came all the way on The Elevated. Winnie out to Austin. Williams birthday.

This is Dear Wills birthday. I had a letter from Hattie. We

We went to church. I wrote Hattie & Lydia. Slept awhile. Later
The Levagoods came and took us down to Orchestra Hall
