Nov. 4-10
No church. Mary Lewis, Ann and I make a visit to town Tuesday and do some shopping. Wednesday Ma and I start in the carriage for the lower neighborhood. We dine at Cousin Fannie Meriwether's and are introduced to Mrs. Geiger and Mr. Gamble. Have a pleasant day. Get to Aunt Sally's about night. She gives us a hearty greeting and a good supper. Uncle Bob is in town. It seems strange with such a small family at Castalia. All the children away but the four youngest. Lilla Boyden [the daughter of Ebeneezer Boyden, the rector of Grace Church] teaches Mag and Lydia. She is very pleasant. I spend a day with sister Mary and enjoy seeing them all at Music Hall. Little Annie has grown much and is getting to be quite accomplished, talking, walking, etc. Uncle Bob gets home Thursday. He is much improved in health. Alice [Lewis] is up Friday night with Warner, [her son, James Warner Lewis.] We get home Saturday to dinner. It was a short but pleasant visit ....
