Transcription Notes
Continued writing more letters to stimulate autumn campaign in the morning — including a long letter to Miss Boutelle of Minneapolis. After lunch went to the school which was disorganised preparing for demonstration. Took a rehearsal of Black Nag & Peascods & Flamborough. Then after singing class gave a small talk on the mountain songs which was apparently very much appreciated. Then came the Girl Scouts Demonstration, drill, signalling, fire-work, baby-tending, camping out etc ending with dances which were greatly appreciated. Then we had a nice morris practice came home to the hotel dined & went to bed. In the first time for 12 months the newspapers give us something nice to read in the news of the Foch offensive in France. The relief of it is very great though it is too soon to crow loudly. Weather very close and muggy but we shall soon get away. Mrs Storrows wants us to spend week end at Lincoln and go to N[ew] York Monday, and South on Tuesday.Location
