A awfull hot day, with a little thunder shower after noon. I went of a usual tending to my paper business. Martha and the girls went to the catholic church and then made me a visit and took a walk around the campus. The girls left here with the 1.30. Martha acompanied them to the depot then came to the shop and we went home together, spending the afternoon with reading and later went out for a little fresh air. Business to day was good. Had pork chops and new potatoes for diner. Strawberrys, Radishes, Pie and cake. The biggest diner we ever had, since we are here. Mamie Connors presented Martha with a pair of knitted slippers and her photograph. It is smoldering hot now. But we can stand it all right.
