Containers:
Box-folder 14:7
Scope and content:

Ada feared that the summer would be the hardest yet for them to be apart. She complained that no one in the house cared for her and that she was more lonesome every day. Tom met Ada in Winchester for a dance which they both enjoyed. Ada promised that she would marry Tom that year. Tom met Mr. Paul Bowles from the Virginia School for the Deaf and Blind and was given encouragement that they would have a place for him next year. Ada wrote that she saw Will Glass but did not really care one way or the other if he was cordial or not.
