Finished "Old Mortality" by Sir Walter Scott, to-day. I did nothing particular throughout the day. Mrs. Esther [Blenstift] was here at about supper time and brought a nice present for Samuel's wedding. I went to Joe's house, next door to us, at about 8. P.M. and found him studying German grammar. I helped him out a little. Then I went to visit my old friend <u>Samuel Moss</u>  on 37 Denison Ave., whom I have not seen for some time. He had company at his house and introduced me to them. He told me about his exams at Jarvis High School. I was at his house for about ten minutes and then went off for a little walk.
