Wednesday June 19, 1935

(This is an entry from the journal entitled Mexico Summer written by Elizabeth Lancaster Carsey 80-years-ago. )

Letter from Mahota at last!  Marjie married Bill Pickle. She and I would sit at lunch and discuss alternately Diantha and Harold or Marjie and Bill! Ty-Ty went to Lobo. Letter from Betty says she has consulted the parents and will wire me if favorable.   I had just sent a letter to Mrs. Ruiz saying that I was coming alone. I’ll wait to write again until I have a telegram – Corrected (?) Jo Ben Wheat’s write-up of his trip last summer! Twas rather like a diary.  Jonathon went to El Paso today with Mr. Buff.  Mary Jo went to Balmorhea.  Jaime got invited to lunch with Mr. Neely with two “high-ups” at the Coffee Shop!  Was he excited!

Here’s what else was happening 80-years-ago today:

President Roosevelt writes a letter to Helen Keller.
