Another awful HOT day. I went to the opening of the new A&P store this morning with Dawn and her mother. I washed, ironed. Went blueberrying. Kids swimming in day and in evening. Dr. Nash came back tonight.

Another letter from Dorothea, good. I wish she would write like this all the time. I love this picture of Jeffrey Dennis Adair. He is the sweetest baby I’ve seen for a long time. This past week he has had measles and a sore throat. I cleaned up the kitchen and rest of the house. To town in late p.m.
