Not a single message here today + I don’t know that D. [David Graham, co-partner] had any except one in the afternoon to Charles Parker, Broadmeadows. I saw 8 town cases walking in forenoon. Went to the “greetin Supper1” which Jack stood in the County Hotel. It was particularly well done + we had a very pleasant evening. David was there, also Aikman the assessor. Jack made a very good speech. It was a cold wet day from N.E.

I think that the phrase might be “greetin supper” which I believe was given by the Provost for the council, before his departure at the end of his term of office.

That was an oversight but thank you very much for pointing it out. I’d agreed with a colleague that that was the correct reading but didn’t update the transcript. Paul
