Bernice went to Marian Price's this afternoon. Baby & I went out to Grandma M's this afternoon. Our family & Georgia went to the park to hear Murdock. He is the representative from the 8th District & the one that brought or began the fight against Cannon. He was born in Burlingame and is fat & red headed. Jackson came with him and introduced him. After Murdock got through, everyone hollered "Jackson, Jackson." but he didn't speak or talk. They were very well received and everyone sure enjoyed them. Harry W brought Zella home. Zella got a letter from Miss Starbeck asking how I was.
