Grace Rose lived from 1887 to 1981. She was born in Michigan and lived there most of her life. This is a transcription of her diary written in 1908, the year she turned 21. 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!

I walked downtown in p.m. and ate supper at Ella S. Went to O.E.S. party in The Armory with Earl in evening. Intended to stay down all night but he had a rig so came home. Seal Morse and Rose Nixon missed the car so rode home with us. E: "Seal kissed you." Ha! Ha! Jealous. Got home at 3:30.
