May 3rd Friday

It is a lovely morning as had a little rain last night that revived things up nicely. And here we are now in Detroit, Mich. Reached here last evening after dark. Left Battle Creek between 3 & 4 o’clock and are now at the pleasant home of her that was Mrs. Walter now Mrs. W. Millard at 545 13th Street, Detroit, Mich. Arthur Walter, the little boy who used to be at our house with his mother so much, is now a bright young man of nearly 16. This afternoon Mrs. Millard and Chauncey & I went down street. Took street car to river & looked around & see the boats then went down street past stores & into the beautiful park with its fountain & had a rest, looking at so many things that attracted the eye, such beautiful flowers. Then started back going into one of the large stores. Took elevator going down into the basement then up eight floors to the top of building where we had a fine view of the city. Then came home & after supper Mr. Millard & Mr. Burch went over to the engine house. Were pretty tired when we reached home.
