W.C., Hattie, and I went over to Owosso in a.m. to see a wild west show parade but they had not come yet so we came back.  I went to Grandma's for dinner and afterwards to the drugstore for a little while.  In evening Earl and I intended to go to the show but it was so tough that Hattie, Winnie, Earl, and I took in the theatoriums.  W.C. lost her pocketbook but we found it again.  Rained awful hard so we got home quite early.  Earl and Winnie felt foolish coming 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."

In p.m. went downtown to Dr's office for Mama's medicine.  Met Will Cook and we walked up to see Grandma.  Went down street and met Bessie C. and then to see Earl.  Such a time.  "Playing two parts."  Cook got mad because I did not tell him that I had other company but I thought he could take a hint without a kick.  "I will let that other fellow walk downtown with you."  Ha! Ha!  Saw him come out of Serr's saloon.  I should have thought he would have felt pretty cheap.  Dandy day.  Went to ballgame.  Flint Mutes - 6 and C.H.S. - 3.  Good game.

***************************************************
Transcriber's note: From the 1907 Corunna Directory, it appears that the Serr family runs 2 saloons at 2 different addresses.  However, since Joe Serr has passed away earlier this month, and his saloon is run from his residence, perhaps only Adam Serr's saloon is open today.

Rec'd W.M.'s letter.  Grandma and I drove downtown in p.m.  I went to see the dressmaker, up to Grandma's house and to Mrs Mills.  Got home at 5 o'clock.  A date with Earl Derham. Ha! Ha!  At 6:30 I walked over to Dolly Long's and in evening Cranes and us girls went to Geo. Ackerson's to a warm sugar social.  An awful crowd and all had a good time.  I helped Ernest Larner work a button-hole and he took me to supper.  I expected Bessie was coming home with me to stay all night but Ward Martin brought me home with his horse and buggy.  "The next house is Roses." Ha! Ha! Got home at 1:30.  Dandy night.
