July 15, 1939 Saturday

After breakfast Ev and I drove Mrs. Seibert to town. We looked for sandals for Ev but didn't find any. Back to cottage where we changed into our bathing suits and put a blanket on the lawn. We wanted to go over to see Jessie who is pretty sick with asthma but we rather imagined she was asleep and we didn't want to disturb her. Mrs. Markham came over and asked if we would stay with Jess while they went to Clinton. Jess couldn't talk very much to us the doctor had her doped up so that she could sleep. She seemed better when we left. We had dinner and later went swimming. The air was cool but the water was delicious. Franny had his sailboat out and was going to give us a ride when he lost a bolt on it and we had to help get it to shore. Ev and I went to Clinton Theatre and saw "Man About Town" with Jack Benny, Dorothy Lamour, Rochester and etc. Amusing.
