While there heard the Tennessee Colored Jubilee Singers and it was fine....Oh dear me, I never had such a funny day! We went to Oakwood in the afternoon and the program was fine. Up to the lecture at 2:30 and that was horrid, before it closed it was raining awfully. Then instead of the Tennesseans, they had the orchestra and it was fine. Then Miss Hemenway came on in a long white robe with a white cross hanging at her side and her hair in two braids down her back. It was fine!!! She had to stop once because of the rain. When she stoped it just rained torrents! I never saw it rain so hard before. it was just a perfect roar. The roof of the tent was leaking and people had there umbrella's up. Well it rained and it rained and it rained! And at about 8:00 the roof broke in one place and it came down in tub fulls.....Went to Chautauqua and it was fine! Mrs. Trabert and Louise treated me to an ice cream cone. I bought a box of Cracker Jack. Mrs. Maywrick spoke and it was very sad. She was in prison 15 yrs. with nothing but stone under her feet all that time. For the first 9 mo. she had mutton broth to eat, for the 2nd 9 mo. she had mutton broth with mutton in it, and for the rest of the time she had bief and potatoes. Her cell was 6 ft by 3 ft and she had to shovel coal 10 hrs. a day. She was accused of killing her husband.....I went with Mrs. Dewey, Mr. Dewey, Frances, Cornelia, Evert and Clovis, and Mrs. Hazard, Hilda, Charlotte and another lady and Hazel to Oak Wood Port and heard Creatore's band. Creatore has hair that comes down to his shoulder. There were from 50 to 100 in the band. I rode on the merry go round 2 times and I was in the lovers tub both times with Cornelia....In the afternoon May and the Misses Moore and Mrs. Waite and our folks went out to Whites Lake for a corn roast and we had lots of fun. May and I walked around the lake....In the afternoon went up to E \u0026 C and we dressed up in boys close and had our pictures taken by Florence Dewey....Went to school had lots of fun in Miss Vincents room, I had to sit on the front seat because I talked so much, but I didn't any more than R. P.....I went to Long Lake with the folks and had lots of fun. We went for a sail in the afternoon and mamma and Aunt Emma got scared and I was at the ours and the white caps were awfully high and I had to pull with all my might and sometimes it seemed as if we didn't move at all....I am going to make a quilt out of those silks James gave me....In the evening mamma and Mrs. DeWater took Esther and Cornelia and Rosamond and Edith and Cecil and I down to the gym and Oh!

Dorothy, who was about 15 when she started her diaries, lived with her mother and older sister.","Dorothy mentions visiting her father (her parents were divorced) and receiving letters from him. She also mentions her group of friends, boy friends, social activities and not doing well in school.","For a more detailed description and excerpts, both provided by the seller, see folder link below:","The following description and excerpts were provided by the seller: \"Lucy writes of constantly going out with her \"gang\" of friends, which includes both girls and boys. Some of her friends are older and can drive, and some like to get drunk. Lucy writes of the fights she has with her friends, seeing a kid take carbolic acid and says \"it was terrible\" .... She writes of getting new neighbors, her rotten grades at school, bob sled parties, hanging out with her friends the boys she kisses and whose lap she sits on, a guy who felt her \"bust\" and made her mad, and there's an interesting entry where she writes of her father's face being half gone and looking terrible!\" Excerpts provided by the seller: \"..... First thing that greeted me was a note from Bill \u0026 Con. Was with Marquerite some this noon. Answered Bills note and gave it to him tonite ..... Fel. visited school and such a time. At noon Billie gave me a note, answered it and gave it to him after school and talked to him. Rode home with Fel .... Talked to Bill at noon. He was peeved at \"Con\". I wrote him a long letter, gave it to him after school but had a hard time. I sure felt bad about him being sort of mad \"Take your choice Cornelia or I\" ..... Louise and I went bob sledding tonite. I went to meet Fel. We sure had fun. Cow-bell, \"Jingle bells\", apples and popcorn, at Wm. afterward. Bowser went along and such a bother .... Sat in Pineys car this noon. \"Monkey wrench\" ha ha! \"Do you cough from the bottom up or the bottom down?\" I nearly felt like crying when I came home, it sure was lonesome for awhile .... Went down town and back with Glen, Kenny, Jake and Jess. Set in car after Glen went to Richies and got me. He sure had the devil in him tonite. Hid my pocketbook, kiss again. \"I love you, I love you, I love you!!!\" ..... Glen borrowed my pen again and the sweet smiles he can give. Rode on bicycle tonite with: Jake, Ray and Kenny. Sure is fun! Found out that Ozella Hontg quit school, amen, what a relief .... Tonite I sure told que what I thot of her - Our friendship has ended forever. I still have dear old Jess and Nell tho! .... Went to town, que half mad. Jess wanted me to go with K.D. but wouldn't, Jake felt my \"bust\". Boy was I mad - Glenn stepped on my toe to get me to look at him. Went home, Jake and Jess kissed 'bye' and Glen told Kenny he was going to kiss me soon. Stopped at Kenny's for Kodak. Went home, Glen kissed me on door step. Ooh! ..... Walked to town with Nel, Jake and Kenny. Fun. Saw que and she came with us but we didn't want her - On way home Jake handed me an envelope. Glen said open it and I did, it had a little snake in it, Glen sure laughed ..... School. Jess and Que sure made at Nell and I. Jess mad cause she had to walk home Friday nite and Que cause she thinks I'm jealous of her. Sure formed my opinion of them. Wrote Que a pretty slamming letter. I cried 5th period to think those girls would do that. Anyhow, I try to act like I don't care and cold shoulder them. In store tonite we sure started on Kenny, he said he didn't know his name was signed at end of letter. That makes 2 more from the \"dear old gang\". I hope they are satisfied at last. I don't ever want to be in it again after such slams and insults and names ..... Blanche and Bill up a while this a.m. Blanche and Bill up to Elsie's for supper. I was there all afternoon and for supper. Blanche had a bottle of hooch and was drunk. Joe and Bill were trying to get her mad. Went home about 9:00 with Joe in truck .........\" \"Some of the names she mentions in the diary are: Donald James ~ Lawrence Case ~ Guy Masonholder ~ Aunt Florence Hunter ~ Mary Black ~ Herman Weymeyer ~ Bob Owens ~ Tom Robertson ~ Bertha Thomas ~ Red Samuelson.\" \"Some of the places she mentions in the diary are: Iowa City ~ Grandview ~ Galesburg ~ Salem ~ Brighton ~ Burlington ~ Savannah.\"","Before reproducing or quoting from any materials, in whole or in part, permission must be obtained from the Special Collections Research Center, and the holder of the copyright, if not Swem Library.","Special Collections Research Center","Willmering, Dorothy Lee, b. circa 1915","English"],"collection_title_tesim":["Dorothy Lee Willmering Diaries, 1930/1931"],"collection_ssim":["Dorothy Lee Willmering Diaries, 1930/1931"],"level_ssm":["collection"],"level_ssim":["Collection"],"unitid_ssm":["SC 00812","/repositories/2/resources/198"],"unitid_tesim":["SC 00812","/repositories/2/resources/198"],"repository_ssm":["College of William and Mary"],"repository_ssim":["College of William and Mary"],"geogname_ssm":["Iowa--Social life and customs"],"geogname_ssim":["Iowa--Social life and customs"],"places_ssim":["Iowa--Social life and customs"],"creator_ssm":["Willmering, Dorothy Lee, b. circa 1915"],"creator_ssim":["Willmering, Dorothy Lee, b. circa 1915"],"creator_persname_ssim":["Willmering, Dorothy Lee, b. circa 1915"],"creator_corpname_ssim":["Special Collections Research Center"],"creators_ssim":["Willmering, Dorothy Lee, b. circa 1915","Special Collections Research Center"],"access_terms_ssm":["Before reproducing or quoting from any materials, in whole or in part, permission must be obtained from the Special Collections Research Center, and the holder of the copyright, if not Swem Library."],"acqinfo_ssim":["Purchase."],"access_subjects_ssim":["Teenage girls--Diaries","Teenagers--Iowa","Teenagers--Social life and customs","Teenagers--United States--Diaries","Diaries"],"access_subjects_ssm":["Teenage girls--Diaries","Teenagers--Iowa","Teenagers--Social life and customs","Teenagers--United States--Diaries","Diaries"],"has_online_content_ssim":["false"],"extent_ssm":["0.02 Linear Feet"],"extent_tesim":["0.02 Linear Feet"],"genreform_ssim":["Diaries"],"date_range_isim":[1930,1931],"accessrestrict_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eCollection is open to all researchers.
