"Marquette diary and daily reminder/a page a day for 1939.  Handwritten with info of what this person did each day, weather, shopping etc.  I have read a few pages--it is interesting. May 22 was this persons birthday--born may 22, 1862 and it's states 'I feel pretty good.'  77 years old.  Pages are tight to the binding and in good condition.  There are a few loose notes as to grocery shopping etc. and some addresses in the rear of the book and notes on the taxes--I believe this person may have lived in the Boston, Ma. area.  Directions to Chas. H. Beverly in Bedford, Ma. are in the back."</p>  </scopecontent>
