(This is an entry from the journal entitled “Mexico Summer” written by Elizabeth Whipple Lancaster Carsey 80-years-ago)
Cashed some money wrote letters and a paper for Nova’s lit class on “La Celestina” in the morning. I am determined to find out about the Davis’. Finally found they live on Avenida Veracruz 56 apts 4 and after some search found it. They had invited some of the missionaries to tea so I stayed. Dr. Hauser described a Catholic Church Wedding that he had attended. Ethelyn is going back for her work on her Master’s next year. She surely is ambitious! She got a scholarship for her tuition. She and I are planniing to go tomorrow to Tepozotlan with a friend of Mrs. Ruiz’s who is wild to talk English with someone. Am rather looking forward to it.
