First Hummer in Garden. Fair
Partly sunny, mostly cloudy. Very
cool with light easterly wind.
  A white-throated Hummingbird, apparently
a young [male], flitting about among our flowers.
Three or four young Robins at the
pond & an adult singing a little in
faint listless tones. Three young Jays,
still in dull, light plumage, in
the cherry trees. No other birds seen
or heard about the place.
  I worked all day on Gr. H. Owl [Great Horned Owl]
story compiling a couple of pages
in forenoon & rewriting one after dinner
that C. [Caroline Brewster] had copied. She worked
from 10.30 to 12.30. Gilbert
motored her in town at 2.30 to
see Mary Greenough & Rebecca who
had just come from Fond du Lac.
 The Cobb-Fullers took supper
with us on back piazza & afterwards
listened to Victrola music until 9.30.
C. then read "Tembarom" until 10.30

Cambridge - Boston
Interview with Judge Abbott
Ther [Thermometer] Thursday, July 30, 1914 Wea [Weather]
Dan French arrives Dull.
Cloudy & cool with frequent light
showers.
  A white-throat Hummer [hummingbird] again in the
 Garden.
  To Boston at 10 A.M. where I met
Judge Abbott by appointment in our office.
We talked for over an hour. I told
him about our appeal to Judge Lawton
in re expenses for running town hall & library
and of his neglect thus far to give us
any decision. Judge Abbott thinks he
will approve our present course and is
sure it is most heartily approved by the
Wolfeboro people who would endorse it in 
town meeting if necessary, he says. He
will speak to Judge L. [Judge Lawton] about it soon.
Dictated two letters & signed a few cheques
Dined at Marstons & visited Steinerts
where I got several new Vic. [Victrola] records.
Home by 4 P.M. C. [Caroline Brewster] & I went to Harry & 
Alice Bartletts at 6.30 & had a good dinner
& talk. Back at 9. Dan French [Daniel Chester French] arrived about
9.30 to spend the night. We sat up
until 11, talking.
