Into courthouse at 8:30. Quite a crowd about 100 gathered for dedication of the courthouse marker 100 years to the day that the Cornerstone was laid. Marion concert band added lots and glad I had programs to distribute. Had stopped at shop and made 40 copies. Then to Center to get my fruit salad ready for picnic at John Green Cemetery. Cottrell’s picked Clara and Anna Gillen & me up. Nice affair- Judge Meyers read Declaration of independence. Home about 3:00 and relaxed until evening and then worked on book.
