Commencement of Evening School classes. Such a drizzle. You were going to meet us, John, but Daddy called to tell you that I would not be there. I wonder if you will call me. I wonder if you are glad or sorry. You will be tired tonight after working late at the bank. And when you go home, will you think of me as I am thinking of you? And dreaming of moments we have had together and of those yet to come - "six years from now."

ContextThis is the journal of Virginia Lee Scott, my grandmother, written when she was seventeen and first dating my grandfather, John Arnold Wilson. It's a dairy published by Media Drug Stores and includes space for two entries per day, with facts about the era printed at the bottom, which I have included in italics. Following, 1928, is the journal of John Arnold Wilson, my grandfather, at age nineteen and in love with my grandmother, followed by my grandmother's journal in 1931. Archives
