June 8, 1883, Friday

Cloudy - shower at 12:30 P.M.  Very warm.  Went to Riverton in morning.  Bagasse burner nearly finished.  Wrote Mr. Chiapella in reply and told him my lecture Monday night would prevent my going with him to St. James unless he would stay over until Tuesday, which I hoped he would do.  Went to Orange Grove in afternoon.
