A warm sultry day.
  At 9.30 A.M. Hansen drove C. [Caroline], Gilbert
& me to Ball's Hill. After I had changed
my clothes Gilbert rowed us across the
river and at after waiting an hour for
E.R.S. [Elizabeth R. Simmons], whom we expected but who did not
appear, C. [Caroline] & I took an electric for Cambridge
at the height of the first shower. The second 
came while we were dining at the Harvard
Restaurant on Dunster St. I spent P.M.
finishing my work on the proofs.

  Brilliantly clear with strong, cool
N.W. [northwest] wind.
  Spent entire day in Museum working
on proofs of Lower Cala. paper [Lower California paper]. They 
are coming fast now, two or three galleys
nearly every day, and more than
three quarters of the matter are in
type.
  C. [Caroline] was gone in Boston & at Roxbury
all day. She had a rather bad
fall while hurrying for a car.
  Hansen brought down a load of wood
& took back my Goddard buggy.

  Brilliantly clear & deliciously cool
with light N.W. [northwest] wind.
  Spent most of the day working on
proofs of Lower Cala. paper [Lower California paper]. At 4 P.M.
Gilbert & I went to the Botanic Garden
where I exposed two 6 1/2 x 8 1/2 plates
but the wind spoiled one of the pictures.
C. [Caroline] joined us at 5.30 P.M. and
we walked back together.

  Clear but somewhat hazy. Warmer

  The Lower Cala. [Lower California] proof continues to

hard on it to-day, both morning
and afternoon. At 4 P.M. Lizzy Fuller,
who is to sail for Europe on Saturday,
called to say good bye. After seeing
her I took a short walk - along
the river past the hospital grounds
& back by way of Elmwood, seeing a
Kingfisher in Coolidge's Creek.
