Transcription Notes
Another steaming hot day. In the morning got off letters etc written yesterday then called on Aunt Polly who was too ill to sing though well enough to gossip. Decided before dinner to go to Alleghany although we had not heard from the Hamiltons, so we packed up our things & after lunch started off to walk, leaving the postman (Clifford Shelton) to bring our luggage. A very hot but pleasant walk. On arrival found Hamilton still away but Miss Bacon very kindly took Maud in for the night & gave us both supper. Shotwell & the Hamiltons appeared very late & very wet so it will be all right for Maud tomorrow. I had a cot bed made up in the cabin. Rather primitive quarters!Location
