Painted fan nearly all day– A visit from Lady Gregory abt 6 & we were going to take a walk together when Mrs Rate called & took us in her carriage with her girl Ida to the park. We walked by Rotten Row & then home. I dressed for dinner quickly & we went to dine at Mr de Falbe’s in Gros: Sqr. Lovely house. Smart dinner—first rate food & wines.
