Mrs Williams is Editor in

better. Improvisata by Reinecke.

Dec 12
Mamma had to go to the
church in the afternoon to
keep quiet. She was in
to McLaren about a set of
dishes. When papa came
home to supper he had
a letter from Allie saying
she cannot play. So I have to.
Papa went with me. Kate
Sutton played a valse & I played
Bolero by Jadassohn. Mr McIntyre
gave a fine lecture on his
trip. Then I played, “God Save the Queen”.
I got a little mixed on it. Papa
& I had to go home with Miss
McGibbon. Ella was over at night.
