19 December 1895 — 3 Savile Row | |

At 3.30 Addie Bedford fetched me & we went to Southwark to the Bd School Christmas treat which was held at Mr Dodge’s Hall. Remained there about an hour. Saw the children have their tea & dance & left them very happy. Addie took me to her home to tea & then I walked back here. Met there pretty Mrs Arkwright her cousin.
