I am so glad you came tonight. "Your eyes have swept my heart clean again." "Every man has two souls; one for the world and one for the woman he loves." Saturday was one of the sweetest evenings we have ever had together. I was so perfectly at ease close in your arms, so happy and contented. I dreamed of it all day yesterday and all day today. One night of love with my perfect Yankee lover. And Fred knows that you have been draving, John.

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
