Tina Wayland took us up & back in her car. Jack was sick, but he had no desire to go even if he had been able.

Mame & Helen Wales were there, & Richard & Addie were getting ready to take them back home, as we came away. I am glad the dresses were right. I thought I would make one or two more, the little hat may come in handy occasionally.
