Plainfield 4-10-14

And every morn on what is stored
Therein in gratitude I look,
But trials, troubles, woe etcetery,
I file away in my forgettery,
And find the scheme a first rate plan
To make me a contented man.”
John Kendrick Bangs

“Afterthought”
“O little Afterthought I wish
You had not come to me,
For with myself I otherwise
Quite satisfied would be.
You’re excellent, but I deplore
That you should not have come before.

Why is it that you are not prompt,
But saunter in instead
When all the things I’ve done are done,
And all I’ve said is said?
Of nuisances you are the worst;
Don’t come, unless you come at first!” -Life

Adjourned to the home to Louis and Virginia Steer,

Plainfield. 4-10 1914

The Association met at Plainfield,
4-10-1914 to dinner and we all enjoyed the
fine shad served so abundantly, and felt
sorry that so few of our members were there
for the treat, only 13 being present, but we
had several guests, Lucy Moore, Kate Thomas,
Ellen Stabler and Margaret Magruder.

In the absence of Mary B. Thomas we
all felt helpless until Sarah Miller gallantly
took up the gavel and persuaded Fannie
Snowden to read the minutes and Sarah Willson
to write the notes, and as these are the
first she has ever written she hopes mistakes
will be forgiven.

The last minutes at Plainfield were read
