Saturday February 27th 1915 We were all busy at home till late in the afternoon. Walter took us to town in the Auto. It was dark and raining some when we got home. Had some letters. Sunday February 28th 1915 It rained most of the day. We girls did not go in with Walter and his Mother. I wrote letters & cards and read a book. The Larshman family come for supper and spent the evening. Monday March 1st 1915 I read and did some fancy work. weather pleasanter. We took a walk over to Taylors late in the afternoon. More letters from home. Tuesday March 2nd 1915 I was doing some writing in the forenoon and packed my trunk in afternoon. We were at home all day. Wednesday March 5th 1915 Mr Falk took my trunk in town in forenoon. After dinner the rest of us took an Auto ride to Enterprise. Got our suppers down town and went to a picture show. The last night. Thursday March 4th 1915 We had early dinner so the folks took me in town to start at 11:25. They came on over to the Junction before the train left there. I did not have a tedious wait at Jacksonville. Got my supper and Pullman ticket and went on the train soon after eight oclock. It rained as I left the station.
