Transcription Notes
Rained hard all night — which was a very cold one — and continued without cessation until noon when it cleared, the sun came out and it became warmer. Got a reply from Afton saying they can accommodate us so decide to go on there tomorrow by the 10-5, via Elkton and Basic City. I wrote a long screed to Miss Louise Pound of Nebraska University, traversing her two articles on origins which she sent me in England and Constance forwarded to me. Our spirits which had fallen with the rain & cold rose with the appearance of the Sun. We went for a walk after tea, telegraphed to Miss Gilman to hold mail for the present, called on Miss Pain who returned the book I had lent her and after a short walk round the town came back in time for dinner. After dinner wrote some letters, packed ready for the morrow and got to bed fairly early. News from France continues favourable. I am feeling rather more fit but am not good for much and my toe still bothers me particularly when I walk.Location
