MEMORANDA

Mary sure can jive now and I also learned a lot of new things to do when jitting. We then had a light supper and then we all sat in front of the fire place and had a very long talk about everything. Mrs. Norris seems so much nicer & kinder to me today, we even danced together, doing an old waltz. Mary & I then escorted her down to her sisters for a visit. "Red" & I returned and sat before the fire the rest of the evening. Alicia left us alone but Cookie had to stay near. Mary & I had a very long talk about everything and now I begin to understand her so much better. If I only had enough time I know she would be mine. We then got Mrs. Norris again and brought. Again Mary was so fine that I feel sure I could have gone ahead a little but if I would have it would have ended everything and all I can do is hope for the best. She's absolutely everything I ever hoped for. We had tea at her Aunts and then I stayed awhile after (over)

Transcription Notes:
"jitting" confirmed as a dance style of the time
