HAIL 1921. Cool in A.M. and bright. Warmer and overcast at night with some rain. Arose 9 A.M. To Uncle Johns with Super Six. Ed & Leila there. Good dinner. Roast Pork, mashed potatoes, jelly, pickles, biscuits, pie, cake, New Years Cookies, punch, etc. Home. Bowled at Morse with H.H. [Hanford Hillman]. Ruth had party at house in evening. Mark Sawyer, Marion B., H.H., Eldyth Proper & I. Played games. Eats. Fine time. TO BED 1:30 A.M.
**********
That was quite a feast! I'm not sure who Eldyth Proper was, but there was such a person living in Schenectady, 18 years old in 1920, who was a neighbor of Merlin Finch. So she is probably the same Eldyth referred to here. According to city directories, Eldyth became a school teacher. In the ship's passenger lists for 1936, Eldyth was still living in Schenectady and still single, traveling to and from Europe. After that, she disappears from the record.
