much to anxious to go to the theatre to-night to see John E. Kellerd in Julius Ceaser. I considered myself very lucky to get the chance to see the play as i have always wanted to see it and have never had a chance before. When i got to the Herring's I found Cousin Clair had gone to Brantford for the day but Mr. Herring was home and he treated me right royally. I told him I wanted to go to the play to-night so he asked me if a matinee would be too much and treated me to it which was "The Bells" by the same company. He then took me all around the city and to the Library and Armouries where he showed me through the Officer's quarters. To-night he and I went to see Julius Caeser at which I stood treat and I certainly enjoyed it immensely. When we got home we found Cousin Clair had not yet returned so we waited up for her. She came in on the twelve o'clock car. I asked her what she thought of me landing in on there without warning. "Well" she said "Why shouldn't you, what have you got relations for," in a tone of voice that made me feel very much at home. We didn't wait up long after she got home and i went to bed feeling very much beholden the the Military Authorities for giving me the opportunity of having such a good time and more than paying my expenses.
