An uneventful day. A stiff wind
blowing. Sat on deck most of the time
but it was wet and damp. The
SS Philadelphia left New York at
ten A. M. Aug 31. and for some hours
today we sailed abreast of her. Then
the Oceanic began to forge ahead and
when we came up from dinner we
could just see her lights about ten
miles behind. Annie dressed for
dinner tonight. She wore black net
over Alice blue. Made low necked
and very becoming to her. Had such
pleasant surprises in the letter line
today. Several of Annie's friends from
Charlotte had written her steamer
letters and Mrs. Wray, Miss Julia
Alexander and Miss Ella Summey
wrote me. They serve five meals
on the boat, three in the dining room
and morning tea at eleven on deck and
afternoon teat at three.
