[[stamped]] 90 [[/stamp]] Jamaica 2. [[margin]] I-22-37 [[/margin]] I went to ton to talk with Miss Nixon some more about the car. Then I stopped at Nathan's to buy some socks. At twelve Miss Nixon came by for us, and took us to the home of Mrs. Wooler, near Cross Roads. She takes guests and has room for all three of us. We liked the place, but told her we would let her know later. Rates 5/-/-, and 3 guineas for Ed. In the afternoon we decided to try to visit Mrs. Bovell to find out if there is a chance to stay at Derry part of the time. We got a taxi and rode out to Caymanas. We finally found that Mrs. Bovell and Marjorie were in town, so we had to come back - unhelped. Since we knew we couldn't stay longer at the South Camp Road Hotel, we decided we would have to go to the Magnus's, at least temporarily. This only took a few minutes to accomplish. The mail we received yesterday included letters from Ed, Wetmore, Sherman, Martha, and Mother. I got one Annals, one Pan-Pacific Ent., one BBES., three Sciences, and from Sherman the copy of Arribalzaga's "Los [[Estafilinos ?]] de Buenos Aires." [[margin]] I-23-37 [[/margin]] to town to see Mr. Masterton, owner of a large garage. He thinks that by Monday he can find me a small car to buy for £15 to £20, or one to rent for [[end page]] [[start page]] [[stamped]] 91 [[/stamp]] £12 per month. Just before noon Marjorie Bovell came by to see us, and took us downtown to see Mrs. Bovell. We discussed the possibility of going to Derry, and made tentative plans for later. In the afternoon Ruth went to call on Mrs. Wooler. I spent the afternoon reading, but after dinner I wrote and mailed an Air Mail letter to Dr. Wetmore asking another $100 advance. [[margin]] I-24-37 [[/margin]] Sunday. A very dull day. Read most of the time. We went to the movies after dinner to see "Tudor Rose", a British film. I didn't like it because it depended on a knowledge of [[strikethrough]] British [[/strikethrough]] ^[[English]] history. [[margin]] I-25-37 [[/margin]] I went to town to get my driver's license and see Mr. Masterton about a car. He had a touring car Fiat that seemed the best thing - to rent at £3 a week (plus £2 insurance for total). He is replacing a spring. He will be responsible for all repairs, greasing, licensing, etc. At five o'clock I went down and got the car. It has a 4-speed transmission, etc., but runs very well. After dinner we rode out to Hope Gardens to see the Edwards. Found that they have moved, and finally located their new house, - nearer town. We stayed only a few minutes as they were ready for dinner. Then we rode out to Harbour Head and back "just for the ride".
