Page 198

198 got intensely warm in the afternoon Miss Cattrell and I went to town and called on Mrs Thacher. I came back home but Miss Cattrell stopped to take a music lesson. Soon after supper Mr Baily and I started down to Lathrops and stopped at Robinsons to see Lizzie who came down tonight. Mr Pottle and Hatt with Mr Cattrell and sister came along and we all went to the party. Maggie had a very pleasant company. Miss Cattrell was sick nearly all the evening and I was up stairs with her. Her brother borrowed a carriage to bring her home. She got better after she came home and we all got to bed at two. Friday June 18th 1877. I was sick all the forenoon. But felt better in the afternoon. Miss Cattrell is feeling very much better We all stayed right around home till evening when we all went to society. Went to bed as soon as we came home.
