WEDNESDAY, JUNE 29, 1870.

Drove over to the city again this morning and took Dora S. with me. Spent the time in doing a little business also in visiting at the College with some young ladies. Nora Velmea{?} Harlon{?} & Miss R. Wallace from Elna{?}. My friend Mr David Horton was there too. We had a good visit together. Dora & I attended the closing exercises to night. I was greatly delighted with it. Saw Dr. and Mrs. Philp. Alice said that Frank had not yet recovered from the chill fever.

THURSDAY, JUNE 30, 1870.

Nora, Dora Sovereign and I left Hamilton for home about midnight last night and got home about six in the morning. We got along very nicely. Found Bro. Thomas Woolsey here from the new credit mission. He came Monday and was taken sick after he got here and could not go home since. Found them all well excepting Fanny who has given up work and left us on account of her ill health. I have spent a very sleepy day to day.
