July 29
Rose Macmurdo comes up to make us a visit; remains nearly three weeks and during the time we have a crowd of company. Helen Macmurdo is with us for several days. She give us The Irish jig one night in The Lodge. While Dutchie is with us, we are invited to dine at Castle Hill. Oh what would I live in such a big house for and have to pay so much attention to what I say and where I point my hands and feet--so much form and ceremony. It is well for me that invitations to such formal dinner parties do not come often or I do not believe I could pass the ordeal with patience.
