HENRY, MORSE AND FRANCES CALL ON JEN
Not quite so cold to-day.
Sunshine most of day.
Morse + Frances went to
G.R. right after breakfast.
Henry went to G.R. too.
Called on Jen at hospital.
Morse + Frances also
called on her.
Hank + Orlo cut wood
to-day.
Morse came back at supper
time. Frances stayed in
Lowell with her mother.
AN EXCITING END TO THE DAY FOR EDNA
Real snappy cold
atmosphere all day.
Sunshine most of day.
Henry + I took Jen to
Blodgett Hospital this P.M.
She has a semi private
room No. 218, sharing
with a Mrs. O'Neal who
is recovering from a
gall bladder operation.
Dr. Thompson (surgeon)
examined Jen thoroughly
and advises an X Ray
for to morrow morning.
Just as I am writing this
Morse + Frances walked in
as surprise as we didn't expect
them until tomorrow night.
Sat up visited until 1:30 AM.
Caledonia won last game of
basketball tournament from Wayland.
Hank made the last points to win.
According to the 1940 census, Morse and Frances were living in Lowell. By 1941, it is possible they were already residing in Jackson. That would make more sense as Lowell is a short jaunt from Bowne Center.
Having her son Morse and his wife Frances home a day early was a welcome surprise. And to top that off, Hank scored the winning basket in the final game of the tournament.
The new year has been a bit exhausting for Edna. This lovely ending to the day must have brought some much needed joy.
HENRY DECIDES NOT TO GO TO NYC
Nice sunny day but quite
cold.
Did baking and cleaning
up [?].
Henry went to G.R. - when
he came home we drove
down to Jens.
Henry was planning to
go with Road Comm to
New York City to attend
Road Builders Meeting
but decided not to go
on account of Jen.
Jen is planning to to
to hospital for X-ray
to-morrow.
