No birds seen from train. We called
on Judge Abbott at Quincy House &

Harvard-Yale football game. I
lunched in Exchange Building, had a
talk with Arthur in his office,
spent an hour in our office
& got out to Cambridge about 4 P.M.
Found a Junco in the Garden.
  Read aloud in morning room after dinner.
Seton's great book on Mammals of
Manitoba arrived this evening - an
autograph copy sent by him from
the publishers. Also had a circular
of it with "At last" written on it,

Just before supper I began a note 
to Seton acknowledging his superb book 
& praising it highly, as it deserves to be
praised. I finished & mailed this letter

Deane.
  In the Garden about 10 A.M. I saw a
