Journal Entry – Sunday August 30th 1914

Lovely day. Very still & quiet.

After lunch we all took deckchairs & sat out under the beech trees. Reginald would talk & disturb our slumbers. Dorothea Juliana lay in her pram & had a bottle.

Then Frank was suddenly seized with a fit of energy & most need to go for a walk so U [Ursula] & I went with him, leaving the rest of the family sleeping, Evelyn snoring horribly.

We went up to the wilderness. U turned back there, Frank and I went on into the rides & wandered up & down them so as to get all the views. It was very lovely.

Dear Hector had some fine hunts.

Father went in the morning to Lezant to help Mr Cardwell, who has just come back from a rest, but is far from well.
