Bright sunny cold day—feeling fairly—bowel action—an egg, Graham toast, stew'd peaches & cocoa for breakfast—reading & scribbling aimlessly—a lull in visitors, mail &c—Mrs. O'C[onnor] must be in Washington D C same address—Wm left two great boxes of MSS wh' she is to overhaul—he had for many years been at intervals on a story "the Brazen Android"—quaint and old & mystic—was once sent out & partly set in type (by the Atlantic) & then recall'd by O'C—

I am sitting here as usual (the same old story)—have a good oak-wood fire—am ab't to have my currying—makes a good midday break indeed—very sunny out—

Sat: Evn'g—6½—Mrs: O'C did not go—leaves Monday—has been over here a couple of hours—is having a nice visit to Phila—Alys Smith & a fellow student girl have been here this evn'g—good visits, talks &c—

Clear weather continued—Y'rs rec'd & welcomed—Am feeling fairly—Suspicion of more strength in me—splendid effect f'm electric light shining in on big bunch of snowy white chrysanthemums—

Love— W W
