Saturday July 25, 1874. This is a lovely sunny day, all of us well. After breakfast David Siss Mattie Faulds and Hunt all went to Yarmouth to do some shopping and to get keys for a trunk that have been lost. We returned at 12, Oclock, took dinner and sewed awhile after tea we all went to the beach to find shells. I had letters from Mr Badger, all well but himself he had Cholera Morbus, he sent me deeds to sign, bought Hunt some drawers, some pins. Sunday July 26, 1874 Another lovely day, neither too cold or too warm. We have here at Denniss Mass what I call perfect weather here at Cape Cod Bay house which sits alone on the hill it is lovely. We have no mosquitoes in the house, at the Beach at night there are plenty and we walk through the brush and we see no insects. This is Sunday and Dr Hulse from our Louisville will lecture to the people, he is a very learned man here for his health. We all enjoy him very much, I have written for Ada to come on here, if her Father will let her. We went to Church at 11 O.clock in Mr Lufkin's Omnibus, it was about a mile from the Hotel in Denniss, it was a neat white frame church and a good size Congregation. The minister gave a very good sermon. After dinner Dr Hulse gave a lecture on the bible in our Hotel parlour and a number of people called to listen to him. after tea we all walked to the Beach, and now I am seated to write home, Adele has a cough which may prove Whooping Cough, but we don't know yet we met it in the Cars, a baby had it. Monday July 22, 1874. Another lovely day neither too warm or cool. After breakfast Mattie Faulds and all sat out on the porch to see the Gentlemen of the house go fishing, then we sewed a little while. At 12 Oclock Mr Lufkin got his wagon and Mr Campbell of Maymouth and Mr Frellerton of Boston said good bye to all the boarders and took an early dinner for the train. Mattie Faulds and I went with them in the Carriage to Yarmouth to go to the bank to see the Notary Public we did shopping and returned to the Hotel. Had letters from home
