Ther [Thermometer] Friday, Nov. 20, 1914 [November 20, 1914] Wea [Weather]
Dull
Dark cloudy clearing just before sunset.
Driving rain all forenoon freezing on
branches of trees & hard surfaced sidewalks.
Altogether a cheerless as well as chilly day.
  A Chickadee & a [female] Downy [Downy Woodpecker] near suet,
3 Crows flying low & 2 or 3 House
Sparrows were the only birds noticed
by me about the place.
  I spent entire day in Museum
working ceaselessly at bills & letters
& clearing my desk of all such
reminders of neglected or postponed
duties just before supper which I
had alone in the den, C. [Caroline Brewster] & E. [Elizabeth R. Simmons] having
gone to their Bee. After supper I
entertained myself with Victrola music
for an hour & then called at the
Almys [to] find Mr., Mrs., Helen & Betty
at home and staying on until 11.

Cambridge - Boston.
Ther [Thermometer] Saturday, Nov. 21, 1914 [November 21, 1914] Wea [Weather]
Fine
Clear & cool with dry, bracing air &
fresh N.W. [northwest] wind.
  To Boston at 9.30 A.M. Sat & 
talked with Betty Almy on way in.
Called at Steinert's to leave rejected
record & list of more I wish to try.
Next to Safety Vault where I took
2 expired mortgages & left them with 
Mr Edes, receiving in their places 2 new
ones for same amounts. Also took out
certificate of West End Land Co. stock
which I left with Estabrook & Co. to
collect the final payment of about 60 [cents]
a share offered by the Company as
proceeds of sale of remaining land. This
payment cancels the stock I believe.
  Spent about 2 hours at our office.
Talked with Arthur, Darling & Galloupe.
Signed one  or two papers. Lunched
at Woodbury's. Called again at
Steinert's & got about a dozen records
for trial. We played part of them this
evening & got 3 good ones from the lot.
Lizzy Fuller called just after dinner.
