I wrote letters all forenoon to Laura, Louise Briggs,
Millie, Ida, Mattie Stitt and later to Edith Whetstone 
as I had a letter from her. Went down town in PM
with Mrs Falk to meet her friend. She did not get here.
We all went down early in evening. I got my supper
in town. They went to train. The lady came.
Sunday March 25th 1923
We went to S S and church. Had dinner as we always
do. I then went to Daytona Beach in an Auto. Rested
till supper time. They walked up to Dunlaps to call.
It has been very warm. Read awhile and went to bed.

I took a walk down to the beach. Stopped at Dunlaps.
I wrote Hattie and rested in afternoon. Evening in my
room. It is very comfortable here at "The Oasis."
Tuesday March 27th 1923
I took a walk and stopped at Dunlaps. Went back
about three oclock and went with Mr D--- and Mrs
Williams over to Daytona to see Elks Parade. It
was supper time when we got back. Later I called on
Mrs Miller at Vermont Hotel. Went to bed early.
