Stormy
Snowing again last night,
raining lightly through most
of to-day, thereby removing 
nearly all the snow that
has come of late but leaving
the ground thinly coated
with glistening ice.
  No birds seen or heard.
  Spent entire day in the Den.
Harry Bartlett came to see
me in the forenoon, Chas Almy [Charles Almy]
in late afternoon, each staying
about an hour.
I accomplished no writing
save that in a letter to
Henry Henshaw. Nor 
did I read anything
except the newspaper.
E. [Elizabeth R. Simmons] read [?] from Martin
Chuzzlewit this evening.

Ther [Thermometer] Monday, Feb. 24, 1919 [February 24, 1919] Wea [Weather]
36 [degrees] Pres. Wilson lands at Boston Fine
Brilliantly clear with fresh
westerly wind. Pools of surface
water & deep mud scattered
throughout our yard. Snow &
ice practically all gone from
streets & sidewalks.
  Garden birds. A Chickadee, 2 [females]
Downies [Downy Woodpecker], 5 House Sparrows.
  For me a day of discomfort
passed mostly sitting in the
den & ending with a violent
attack of nausea. In mid
P.M. I did get out of doors 
to spend upwards of twenty
minutes on plank walk leading 
to Museum where it seemed
good to breathe fresh air again.
My heart has begun to trouble
me a good deal especially
when going up stairs. C. [Caroline Brewster] also
is less well & indeed having a 
trying time I fear.
