             me in the morning. Glad he called, but I was disappointed. Still
             something to look forward to.
                           George returns to Jacksonville


                 August 24. Harold and I went uptown after my belt. George
             came meanwhile. I didn’t think he was coming till noon. I came
             home he kissed me in front of Mother. He looks keen. I’m so glad
             he’s here. Did I miss him??? George and I went riding in after-
             noon. In evening we went to show to see Suzy. Had fun. Went to
             Merrigan’s.

                 August 25. George and I rode around all day. In evening we
             went riding (Jim and Norine too). We went to Wagner’s. Keen
             time. George is still the same. George and I took Father Andy 8
             miles east of Carrollton for a sick call [to take Communion to the
             sick]. Had fun coming back. Stopped at Carrollton.

                 August 26. George bought me the most beautiful vanity set I
             ever saw. I love it. He picked it and then took me along to get it.
             He’s a darling. We went to show in afternoon. Saw Jailbreak and
             It’s Love Again. Everyone loves my vanity set. In nite we went to
             Carrollton with Jimmie, saw Shirley Temple again. Good.

                 August 27. George and I went riding in afternoon, went to
             milk-shake place. In nite Charlie, Betty, Joyce Wilday and Archie
             DeSollar, and George and I went to Liberty. Had lots of fun. It
             rained and rained.

                 August 28. George and I went to show to see Message to Garcia
             and My American Wife. In evening we went to Carrollton.
                 August 29. George and John and I went hunting. In nite we
             went to the dance. Had lots of fun. Were with John and Betty
             awhile.
