Mr Badger gone to OakPark to see his sister Licinia

Saturday, May 24, 1902

It has been a beautiful sunny day, all well but Nana, her cough worse, she strangles with it - we now think it may be whooping cough. I have been busy all day putting away winter clothes, and ? up summer. My daughter Belle Mrs Harvey, telephoned me to come and spend the day, and she would call up Mr Badger to come, and Ada Henry would meet me at the North Western depot at 4. but I declined the journey. would be too much for me, in so short a notice - the distance being thirty miles. but I promised to go in Monday - Mr. Badger went to Oak Park to visits sister Mrs John O. Hilton - he found Licinia, Carrie McBooth and his sister Ella (Mrs Manger) from the west side (all were very glad to see him - and regretted I did not come - at seven o.clock we had a very severe electric storm - a great deal of rain.
