Tuesday.Wrote Richie about his Mermorial to Council about college and our contribution to Mary's support and saying I would be glad to buy Richard's family silver an it's full value - if she desired to part with it. This would help bar without putting her under any obligation. Of course this would be entirely independent of any contribution I might give towards her support - which I am willing to make just as liberal as I can.
Wednesday. Did not go out. Sorting old letters. Sad, but interesting, sometimes amusing. How vividly it brings before us persons dead and gone and events long forgotten - though considered at the time of their occurrence vastly important.
