I got my present from Earl.  "Swell."  I walked down to Bessie's in a.m.  In p.m. she and I drove their hired man's horse to Vernon.  "Postal cards."  Ha! Ha!  She brought me home.

Bessie came up in the morning and just as we got thru eating dinner Earl drove up and we drove the horse all p.m.  Stopped to see Pearl Wren and had ice cream.  Saw Grandma and she told us that Edith Driscoll has been married a month.  Great!  At 8 o'clock Earl closed the store and we came home and ate ice cream again that he brought up.  Talked, danced, sung, and whistled in evening.  Took Bessie home at 10:30.  "Foolish."

Awful warm.  First Band Concert in Park but I did not go.  Ella and Chester came up in p.m. also Earl.  We had planned to go riding in p.m. but all of the liveries were at Joe Serr's funeral.  Too bad.  Bill waited for Bessie (?) and I in Vernon.  Ha! Ha!

Rained off and on all day and Bessie and I had planned to go to the ball-game between Greenville and C.H.S. but couldn't.  Talked with Will in evening.  Mama sat up and was dressed for the first.  Chilt told my fortune in p.m.  Took Grandma down to Belle's after supper.
