Text Appearing After Image: SOUTHAMPTON well at Southampton. I went with Mr. Page to see the town there, saw four cricket Matches and the town was gay with iiags for the Queens Jubilee and at least 500 yachts, big and 258 ENGLAND little, in the harbor. We made a tour around the war ships,200 EngHsh and a dozen foreign, including the Brooklynwhich was most imposing of all. This morning we took the boat to Cowes where we sawGoelets Mayflower at anchor, a splendid boat, thence stillon our pretty little steamer to Ryde Pier and then by trainto this exquisite place. Newport is just a little reminder ofit and yet this is so old and so perfect it is wonderful. We met a party coaching who had crossed on the steamerwith us, and we are to drive in a few minutes to Ventnor, wherewe spend to-night and dine with them. To-morrow we willtake a coach ride and be back in Southampton by Sunday andthence to Salisbury. Oh how I wish you were with us to enjoyit all, altho it is a bit hot. Your Mother joins me in best loveto you both Note About Images Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original work. |
