She lived in Corunna, Michigan at the time. In just a few years, she would be married to Earl Derham. Read on for the adventures of a single girl in the early 20th century!

Went downtown in a.m., to Owosso and Maude T's in p.m., and to the dress maker. Thought I had lost my shopping bag but found it back of the hall tree at Belle's. We all went to the musical in Baptist church in evening to hear Gertie Goodell sing.
