return trip.  When we came to Strutt's we turned in to examine the
place.  Mr. S. is anxious to see and so too is Mr. Potee(t).  Mr. P's place
is located between Mr. S's and Mr. Stone's, from the house one gets a nice view
of the Severn.  Beyond Mr. Stone's is Dorsey's, this place is for sale too, and is
possible located finest of all.  From D's we went to Mr. Scott's place.
Mr. S. has a beautiful home but the view from his place is not so fine.
Mr. W. had the keys to the house, we entered but did not look around.
From S's we hastened to the station which we reached half an hour before
train time.  The day was beautiful, although cold, it was nothing
like as cold as the day before.  A thin coat of ice was noticed on
the river in many places.

November 30, 1903.  Across the river to Brooklyn.  The weather continues
cold.  The scenery is decidedly wintry, snow everywhere from ½ to 1 inch
deep.  We had the snow storm yesterday; this morning, it is cloudy but
the sun is making an effort to shine.  I took the camera with me.
The river has a thin coating of ice.  This is the first time that I have
known it to be so cold in November.  In Brooklyn saw some
children skating on the river.  I noticed that several of the Norway
Maples still retain their keys.  I went out the first road to the little
ravine, went through it and then walked along the path along the river.
