Saturday, June 29, 1929 - Benning, GA


I think it was about eight when I woke up this morning. Bess was giving a bridge party for me this morning so after we had breakfast I helped Bess clean up and fix up. At about a quarter to ten Bess had to go on a last errand and I went with her and when we got back all the guests were there except one. Bess was terribly embarrassed. We played progression. There was a first and second prize. I think I was third high. Bess presented me with a guest prize. It was a beautiful linen towel. After we had finished playing Bess served us a lovely lunch right at the tables. After they had all gone Bess and I lay down and talked until about three thirty. Then Bess took me over to the hospital to see about a bump that I got on my head about a week ago that never went away. The doctor said he didn’t think it was serious. At four thirty we went swimming. I saw quite a few people that I had met yesterday. After supper Bess and I went downtown to a show, - Davy Lee in “Sonny Boy”. Then went to soda fountain. When we got home I had to pack my suit case before we got to bed.

Jane's Notes: There is a bridge tally in the scrapbook from the party Bess gave for Mom.
