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!

Mr Shroder and Mr Leffingwell bought all of our horses and Papa went to Detroit on the evening train. Mama was taken sick at 1 o'clock, and I had the Dr come up but she did not get better until 1 a.m. Earl drove his own new rig up but we could not take a ride so he stayed here.
