Much colder this morning.
Richard Kirk died this morning
at "Fair Hill" after suffering much
since about Christmas when he
had a fall fracturing & dislocating
his leg and ankle, the shock and
suffering from which is said to have
developed a latent "cancerous"
affection of his stomach from which
he died. Some of those who went
to the Inaguration yesterday are
"turning up" one at a time to day
looking "used up" and wishing they
had staid at home.
