Page 56

Monday October 24th 1927
I got my things together to come back to my
rooms. Hattie at work up in the attic. Rob
sent the truck for us at two oclock. Hattie went
to Club meeting. But was here a moment after that.
I put things away. Went out for some thing for my
supper. Felt mighty lonely. Wrote L D L in evening.
Tuesday October 25th 1927
I went up town to do a number of errands. It was
a fine day. Sewed some in afternoon. Wrote Mays
daughter at Eagle City Okla. Spent evening at Aunt Emmas.
Wednesday October 26th 1927
I was up town in the AM, did a number of errands.
Mary came to take me over there at 1.30. Hattie was
already there. They brought us home. I met Hattie at
the store after supper. We went to the first S. U. I. dramatic.
Thursday October 27th 1927
I slept late. Went up town just before dinner. Fine
day. Wrote Ida and Mattie Fletcher. Read some.
Hattie stopped here for supper and we went to
prayer meeting. Elmer Anderson took her home
and brought me on to [Harten?] Weather delightful.
Friday October 28th 1927
I was home all day. Did some sewing
and washing in AM. Slept awhile in the
afternoon and finished ready a book. Rob
here in the evening. He is to take Cora to
Cedar Rapids tomorrow to go to Minneapolis.
