April 11

Mrs Trusty is sick so we had a
Miss Freeman to wash. Early in
the afternoon I went over to Dwyer's
and asked Beatrice to go with
me to Granite Hall to practice my piece
We went, and I came home
with her. Then she came
home with me for tea.
We played euchre, and
beat all but one game Papa
went to Thorold. Percy came
after Beatrice. They leave some
violets out, and they smell
like spring. Raining hard.


april 12
Went over to Lee's in morning
looks like rain. We were
to have our ironing done
but she had to go to S. Smith's
to wash. Mamma and I went
to Musical at night. Mrs Camp
led to-night. Mrs Marquis was
the only married person on the
programme (nearly all Misses). Bella
Kilner played "Moment Musical"
by Scharwenka. The best one
was a Rondo for two pianos
by Chopin. Miss Paterson first
piano and Mrs Marquis
the second. I think I got
through mine alright.
