Anna's 30th birthday

Stormy rain most of the day--cooler

Had quite a thundershower in the night which has cooled the air. Been very busy & cross today. But I have tried not to be the latter. Now when I ought to be patient, loving & kind to all, I am so easily irritated, I wonder why! Surely it cannot be because I am run down, for I have been that before. Miss S & Kellogg have been to Avon, brought me a bunch of arbutur which flower always reminds me of "Will." My riding habit is all done and at home! Miss G'law likes it. Wish I could have sent Anna something today. The dear girl! Lewis family came in today.
