Fine weather. Got up unusual early for a Sunday morning. Did not get to church for Richard was ashamed to go with his old shoes and Martha wanted a new hat. Had our diner, consisting of Roast Beef & Potatoes & Sauerkraut at 12 o’clock and then took a walk to Joe Priest in Olive Street to look at a Tenement. Could not see in and so went to visit Smiths in South St. Got home at 5 o’clock. Ate supper as usually and spent evening with reading and writing. The big walk on dirty str. tired us pretty well out, so I guess we go to bed early, to have a good solid rest.
