Two sportsmen, friends of Poland's

Gilbert was about having gone to 
Concord for the day. I went 
in town after dinner to attend meeting
of Aud. Soc. Directors [Audubon Society Directors] at Boston Society.
Seven or eight members present. Had
a long talk with Dr. Field. He walked
with me to Athletic Club where I spent
nearly an hour with Frank Manning. Got

Ther. [Thermometer] THURS. [Thursday] MAR. 10, 1910 [March 10, 1910] Wea. [Weather]
24 [degrees] min. [minimum] Fine.
Clear & cold with fresh N.W. wind.
  Spent day in Museum working
on reply to Dwight. It bothers me 
exceedingly. I cannot seem to answer
him effectively without saying more
cutting things than I care to risk.
Thus I keep making false starts &
abandoning them. C. [Caroline Brewster] spent the day 
in town. By her invitation Mrs. Scudder
came out to lunch with me. We
talked chiefly about flowers. I walked
home with her & then returned to my
work. C. read Mrs. Gaskell to me
after dinner which we had together in 
the morning room. Mackintire called at
8.30 A.M. He has written a number of
letters about the mortgages. I went with
him to 61 Sparks St. where Edwards is at work
Two Flickers in Parkman's apple tree at
8 A.M. One "shouted" later.
