Thursday April 17th gorgeous weather 65 degrees
Called Tecumseh trying to find Dave Chesser to get him out to install bay windows. Worked in a day “left the dust in different places” but did find some white elephants for Federated Clubs bazaar. Took them in about 5 & mailed letters to Star & WMRN about Eber Baker’s 200th birthday.

Tuesday April 15th
Carroll’s group arrived before I got there at 7:15 and when I went up he was lighting candles. Board meeting was shunted to a table in Big Red’s workroom. Found later it was not his architectural class as he told me but the Lioness meeting. He handed over the $25 check they gave him for Historical Society. I couldn’t outstay him and looked him in when he left the door open as I left. This proves that he still has a key.

Got to Big Red Quick Print (Bowen house) at 7:15 but Carroll and his class there ahead of me. So he still has a key even though he gave me his last Friday. I found a pin in the parking area so went up to see if it belonged to one of the women. Carroll was lighting candles- another thing the letter asked him not to do. Board had to meet among the printing paraphernalia downstairs.
