Streets and hotels and stores no longer so unpleasantly crowded as last year.  Many trees of [[underlined]] hurricane [[\underlined]] everywhere.  Vegetation seems denuded.  Fine row of Australian pines leading to Royal Palm Hotel all branches cut, [[underlined]] look very bare.  Many Coconut Palms [[\underlined]] and [[underlined]] Royal Palms seem [[\underlined]] unhurt, but [[underlined]] many destroyed. [[\underlined]]  Some parts look very bare.  New [[underlined]] harbor no longer congested.  No sail vessels [[\underlined]] where [[underlined]] last [[\underlined]] year there was a [[underlined]] forest of masts.  Fewer Yachts, [[\underlined]] several of them half submerged.  Some of them [[underlined]] still on the waterfront Park where the high water had driven them. [[\underlined]]  Very warm and unpleasant on the white glittering, unshaded road.  Afternoon went to [[underlined]] Coconut Grove [[\underlined]] where met [[underlined]] Commodore [[\underlined]]
