Aunt Minnie and I saw Beverly of Greystark Had to move our seats. Why?
Friday, January 3, 1913
Received a card from Irene today. Had a little snow. Sported my green bow for the first time.
Saturday, January 4, 1913
Snowed almost all day to-day is about 4" deep, colder tonight.
Aunt Minnie Nora's paternal aunt and they spend a fair amount of time together. Here's a blurb about the play, Beverly of Graustark (Greystark).
The author of the play, George Barr McCutcheon, grew up just 50 miles from Logansport. George was only 47 when this play was staged....I wonder if he was part of planning of the production.
I'm not sure who Irene is....another mystery to unwind. And I would love to see Grandma Nora in her green bow!
I wonder if Nora ventured out on the snowy Saturday? Hopefully she was all cozy in their home.
Speaking of venturing out, I haven't left the house (except to walk across the front yard yesterday and today in my pajamas to visit Aaron) for the last five days. I can't imagine battling the flu in 1913 - at 64 years old it very may have been the death of me.
