Sun. Mar. 7, 1897 Wea. warm

Cora and I went to church this morning. Mrs. Veeder came over and then Roy came from with a team and they went home. August Johnson came up and spent the evening. We ate candy and he helped me write some applications for a position. I hope to goodness I will get it. August is going home to-morrow and will assume the position of auditor. I tell you I feel proud of him as he is one of “our boys.”

NOTES
1. Hilda apparently left out a word when she wrote "Roy came from with a team."
2. The word “auditor” is not written clearly but no other word seems plausible.
3. Presumably, the applications were for teaching positions.
