in the Todd's machine. We had heard
that the Todd's were going to have
the [pony?] ballet at their house to-night
for another rehearsal + practice an
encore, and then refreshments. We knew
it would be a pretty gay party, + to
my horror, Mr. Todd came up to me
about 11:30 + said "You're coming up
to the house to-night, aren't you," +
although I made all kinds of
excuses, he wouldn't let me say no,
+ said he would get E + Miss Stewart
to come too. Mr. Hornbaker was also
asked but he managed to excuse
himself. Never have I been to such
a party, and I've never felt so out
of place. Mr. + Mrs. Harry Coldwell, Mr.
+ Mrs. Green, Mr. Courtney, Mr. King,
[Ashes?], Miss Stewart, E + I made up
the party. Before E + Miss S came we
had music, and some five choruses,
but finally I retired way over in a

once or twice, + I retired in fright.
We thought Miss Stewart + E were lost
for they never came until one o'clock.
