Thursday, February 22, 1923

Bright, cool and damp. Arose 8 A.M. Breakfast. Studied. Cleaned typewriter. Conley, Leary and I to dinner and then to Franklin Park. Pleasant time. Talked. Supper. To Tremont Temple to see "A Town that forgot God." Very good. Talked. To bed 12:15 P.M. Thankful for health.

I guess Stanford didn't work on this day.

The Town That Forgot God is a film that was released in 1923. Here is a synopsis from TCM:
A village schoolteacher, unaware that Eben, the village carpenter, is in love with her, marries a surveyor and has a son, David. Eben, distraught at losing her, goes away, and he returns years later to find that David, now an orphan, is running away from his cruel foster father, the squire. Eben befriends David, and when the town is destroyed by a storm the two escape harm. An epilog shows David 25 years later as a successful businessman, happily married, helping to rebuild the town.
