As a natural result of last night’s dissipation we did not get up before late. We had to wash & do general house cleaning. Marion went up to the Capitol with me. Should have rec’d my warrant but came late so didn’t. We expected to get $5 a day but got $4 so will receive $80. Lu went with Marion to see her off to-night. Flo & I [the rest of the entry is in shorthand].
Closeup of the shorthand.
It begins with "Flo & I" plus the lower part of the letter "f" from the line above.
NOTE
In Fifth Biennial Report of the State Auditor to the Governor of North Dakota for the Two Years Ending June 30, 1898, see page 25 for a listing of Hilda's first $80 on pages listing "Appropriation of Per Diem, Officers, and Employes." See page 29 for her March 3 final payment.
Other familiar names listed in this report are Roy Veeder, Boucher (the warden), Casselman, Miss McVey (lulu McVey, not to be confused with Hilda's sister Lulu Satterlund).
