Ther [Thermometer] Thursday, Jan. 30, 1919 [January 30, 1919] Wea [Weather]
Fine.
Clear, calm, comparatively mild.
Light snowfall of yesterday
already gone for most part
from streets & sidewalks but
still whitening lawns & back yards.
  A querulous House Sparrow the
only bird coming within my ken.

Spent most of day in "den",
reading a little & writing
a few lines. C. [Caroline Brewster] came up
with Charlotte about noon to
stay no more than an hour. 
Walter Deane called on us both
while she was here. When she 
left to walk back I went
with her as far as Sparks St.
thereby getting my first breath of
out-door air since Saturday
last. Dr. Stevens called at 3 P.M.
Emmy Kettell arrived from N.J. [New Jersey]
at 4.30 P.M.

Cambridge.
Ther [Thermometer] Friday, Jan. 31, 1919 [January 31, 1919] Wea [Weather]
Fine
  Clear with blustering N.W. [northwest]
wind which gave one an
impression of wintry chill
although the streets continued
muddy through most of day.
  My ills & ails increasingly acute &
troublesome, confining me to
the house where I spent most
of day in the den reading a
little & writing two or three
short letters. Emmy Kettell
sat with me part of forenoon
& then went to Ware Hall
to lunch with C. [Caroline Brewster] & thence to
Boston Symphony Concert with
Miss Stenson. E.R.S. [Elizabeth R. Simmons] went
to afternoon meeting of her Bee.
Sally Dearborn calling on her
then found me at home instead
& entertained me for half an hour
or more with most agreeable talk
as we sat together in the Den.
Evening spent in hall with E.R.S. &
Emmy, talking.
