Charles E. Burchfield (1893-1967)

                                  Saturday Dec. 10 1910.
      Well I certainly am tired this morning. They do get home until two or three o’clock – didn’t to investigate the time for I was almost asleep anyway. There is not much to tell about the party. Altho we went to three different places, still so little was done that there remains little to talk about.
     I waited until I thought everyone would be a Boyle’s and then started. As I came slipping in, I found Veda and Beulah were the only ones there. Very soon however the Misses Richards, two of the faculty arrived, and after them the rest. Everyone was talking in laughing. A joke was on everyone when they gave the information that we were to start for Murphies - we had all taken off our gloves and overcoats. But we were soon on our way, slipping in sliding, for it was icy, laughing shouting and talking merrily. A few rum-feds, secluded themselves from the rest and walked with girls but then rump-feds will be rump-feds, which winning ronyons cannot account for.
For awhile at Murphy’s we didn’t do anything but sit around and talk when finally this got too slow for a few of us
