Diary entry for March 26, 1912
Title
Diary entry for March 26, 1912
Creator
John Sloan, American painter, etcher, and illustrator, 1871–1951
Description
March 26, 1912
Recruiting (marked $500.00 bargain price) went to Minnesota Art Assoc. Ex. today.
Worked on second Pirate picture.
Miss Sehon called and told us as a great secret that she and her “Si” Felder are to be married in September. She is all eager for wedding presents! and quite frank about it. I could not detect much maidenly hesitancy on the brink of connubial bliss, but she’s a nice little girl anyway. I hope she is happy.
Dolly went to Woman’s Committee meeting in the evening. A vote of 3 to 2 decided thatthey would not accept the invitation of the Women’s suffrage party to parade with them. Idiots!
