Dec – 28, 1921 –
Today going down Niagara St, the brilliant sun-shine seemed like Spring – I had a vision of glistening saplings crackling in a March wind – I have looked into the eyes of a real woman who will be mine – Spring! Life is young again – A look from this girl sends the blood thru my veins as the March winds stirs the sap in the trees –
