Sister Mary came home from school on a visit. She had

been gone six weeks the longest she had ever been away.

I went to St. Cloud and Mary and Lizzie Warner went up to

Sauk Rapids to get examined for school teachers. Sunday

night Mary, Lizzie & I went to church and Lizzie slighted me

going home. I did not think she was that kind of a girl. but it

takes time to find everyone out.

I went over to Edwards this afternoon and found Etta alone.

We had all afternoon to ourselves. She told me all her

troubles. I feel sorry for her and told her so. She let me hug

and kiss her all I wanted to. She has always been a very shy

and modest before that it rather surprised me. But she is a

good girl and I wish I was in the ??situation, I would take her

away from that before another month. She will make some

one a good wife, and maybe it will be me.

I went over to see Etta. but she had gone to Princeton??. I

was sorry it seems that when ever I begin to think any thing of

a girl something happens to part us.

I went down to see Lizzie Hurt [ my old standby - we would

quarrel but when I had no other place to go I would go see her

and I was always welcome but sometimes she had other

fellas ] We went to Sunday school and had a very nice time. I

stayed until 5 o'clock P.M. I don't expect to see her for a long

time.
