October May

[Centered] Sunday Monday, 7. 20th

[Right] 1877

Intended to have been up early: was up late. Too late as I thought for Court. I rushed up to 57th Street. In luck again. Obtained the only important case. Wrote up copy for Brewer, as he was away. Handed in my one case at Herald office. Then to Bath. Warm day. Seeming cooler than his previous days. The [dummy?] came and had three cars attached all nearly filled. Spent the afternoon at our house in Bath m writing. Think I saw the Shaws. Wrote up good deal of diary. Necessesarily imperfect all though using a poor method. [Forgot likely?] that yesterday dropped in that coat I have been wearing up to that time. Kate fine. Great heaven be praised. Better than the killing of 20 unwell + unhappy. Mary Rob arrived late: about 6 1/2. Wrote to Magie and J. U. D. Mrs. Williams down. Mary visited her. Pleasant day.

[Centered] Monday 21st

Up at 6 1/2. Dressed myself. Went to bed with clothes on. Up again after 8. Mary and Papa to the city on an early [dummy?]. Damp day. Stayed around grounds till late. Had something to eat and then to [dummy?]. Caught an earlier train than I thought I should. To Court. Nothing of much consequence. In the evening to Wallacks to witness "Rosedale". Enjoyed the play exceedingly. Very full house. Wallacks, Bucket and Effie German played very well. Also saw Gilbert. To bed late as usual.
