Sun. May 2, 1897 Wea. nice

-
Wrote some letters and talked over last nights entertainment. Mr. Haughery bought my shadow for 60¢. Mr. Wahl got Mrs. W. and paid 1.80. August and Mrs. W. have been laughing so knowingly at me all day but cannot see what it can be exactly. Went to S.S. in the evening went down to the river. Dr. came and took us for a boat ride. [Hilda added a few lines in shorthand.]

NOTE:
Re "Haughery" - Later in the diary (May 8), Hilda mentions "Mr. Haugberg's store." Could the "Haughery" written here actually be "Haugberg"? Both names are real names, and in a Google search, both names can be found in North Dakota.
