Trella Hemmerly – 1947-04-21

Monday, April 21, 1947
Too dull & drippy to wash. Spent morning getting ready to be ready at 1 to take Ruth & Lewis, Grandad Haldeman [Grant] & Helen Bonen to Mt. Gilead to Emma Haldeman’s funeral. Cousin of Lewis & wife of cousin of grandad. Left Kathy with mother but took David & he behaved beautifully even during service at church.

Stopped to see Jenny at Johnsville. Had planned to go to Williamsport woods & get golden saxifrage but started raining again.

When got home discovered that one of the polyphemus moths had emerged. So Mary & I went to Eastern Star dinner – 50th anniversary. Got boring though so we left at 10:30 in midst of meeting 50 years ago complete with kerosene lamps & old dresses.

Wally went to see “Suddenly It’s Spring”.

Read Sunday papers before retiring.
