Edwinstowe - Liverpool
Ther. [Thermometer] MON. JULY 31, 1911 [Monday, July 31, 1911] Wea. [Weather]
Fine.
Clear & very warm with fresh S.W. [southwest] wind.
C.[Caroline], E.R.S.[Elizabeth R. Simmons] & I went to the village soon
after breakfast to buy some photographs of
Sherwood Forest trees & to send telegrams.
After doing this we walked back past our 
hotel & up the road beyond to the crest
of a hill. On both sides of the road were
fields of grain now fully ripe & dense
hawthorn hedges alive with birds which as
usual kept close hidden for the most part.
There was little or no singing but much
chirping & calling & [?] of fluttering wings.
  At 1.30 we all went together to the station
where I said goodbye to C. & [strikeout] [?] [/strikeout] & took the
1.52 train for Liverpool. Beyond
Sheffield (a horrid smoky city) we passed
through a beautiful hilly region the 
crest or "cap", of Derbyshire. It is not
unlike outskirts of the Lake Country. Reached 
Liverpool at 7.15 & went to North Western
Hotel where I found all my [?] luggage.
