for some groceries for her. Jen Krug phoned asking her to go to Southampton so she left at 5.45. to spend the week end there. After tea I watered the beds and then went over to Mrs. Ferguson's. Went down town for her mail and her shoe. Took them back. Then went to Mrs. Beattie's with a message & finding she had a sore heel came home and got rubber inheels for her & took them over. Went to late train to meet Winnie Ferguson. Train 40 Minutes late.
