Transcription Notes
We go off again to the Meltons taking the short cut, which enables us to get there in about 2_ hours — in this case at 10.15. We spend several hours with them, having dinner there. Mrs Leona sings me some more songs — one very good one. On our return home Maud gets very tired and nearly collapses. The day is sultry & hot — very trying after the cold weather we have been having. Two doses of grape juice on our arrival do her a lot of good. After some tea & a short half-hours rest I change my clothes and go round to Westcotts where I spend a very pleasant evening. Rather nice to get a talk with a man of his sort, for a change. Stay there till nearly 10, come home eat cheese, raisins & crackers with Maud & then to bed, pretty tired.Location
