These are transcriptions of my grandmother's journals and writings from different points in her life from her girlhood diaries in Kansas in the early 1900's to her later years.
Monday, March 31, 1913.
Mary and I went to town this noon and you can't guess who I saw?! Harry Woolverton! and he looked swell too. I went out home with Mary to-night and after supper, Alfred, Mary and I went three miles north to Stowe's to a shower for Nora Stowe. She is going to be married soon. The girls I met were Viola Mast, Viola Warner, Beatrice Davies, Beulah Emerson, Bertha Young, Isabel Ishman, Ruby Bodine & Verni Stowe Baker. We used to take milk to her when we lived in town. Stokes Dodson was there. Mrs Baker, Stokes, Vernajae Emerson (I had to catch flies with him to pay for my forfeit -- fine dope) -- and I played cards -- then Stokes and I played -- ate supper together and [something in German?] ha! ha! He and I had quite a talk and Beatrice Davies seemed quite jealous. It was just dandy riding home.
