Day began at 5 A.M. when phone rang to tell us the fire alarm had shown a fire in Nancy’s dressing room. It was a malfunction but S.S. & W.H. Police came in and went up into the ceiling etc.

Church at 11—Nat. Presbyterian—very nice.

Took our 1st walk on W.H. grounds—saw the pool, dog runs & tennis court.
