August 18 – Saturday
The ladies walked over to Mrs. Bronk’s and gathered some vegetables for dinner.
Immediately after lunch, we went driving in a beautiful carriage. We drove through Elizabeth Park, Bushnell Park and Bronk Park, also the business part of the city, covering about fifteen or sixteen miles. We saw a great many elegant homes and beautiful lawns, which far surpassed ours in Atlanta.
After having taken in Hartford generally, and having spent a very delightful afternoon, we went back out to Luna Park to spend Saturday evening. The most interesting thing that we did was to roll balls in a Chinese shop, and get several pretty souvenirs of the place.
On our way back, a car just ahead jumped the track and naturally we were delayed, but finally reached our destination –a very tired-out party.
