Left camera to be repaired. Took nap. Read. To Gen. Theo. Lib. after books. Supper. Studied. To bed 11:15 P.M. Thankful for good eyes.

Just think--in just a year Stanford will be engaged!

I see Stanford misspelled Ernest's name--just a typo, I think.

Ernest had a fairly long and successful life, dying at the age of 77 in 1965. Below is his obituary, as it was published in the Bridgeport Post for April 2, 1965. Looks like he died with his boots on, as they say. I wonder if Stanford kept in touch with him through the years?
