On Aug 17-1925, accompanied

by Chas Daily of Colorado Sprs

who had come from Western

Elec. Plant, Chicago the 15th to visit

Ohio relatives of his mother, we

started early toward Chicago.

with Chas Wheaton at the

wheel for a hundred miles or

so. After lunch, somewhere

close to, or in Indiana, Chas.

Daily became chaffeur and

surely did delight in "stepping

on her",-to my discomfort and

dismay and, -well, all but

anger. Especially as we neared

Chicago, because there were so

many, close together, sharp turns

in Northern Indiana roads.

Reached South Chicago for early

lunch and there Chas. Daily left us.

Camp sites around S. Chi. did

not suit us, so we just kept on

driving, as the sun was still shining

until came to Joliet (Ill) city

camp, where decided had enough

motoring for one day 339 mi- a big

record run, because had two drivers.

Rained in night so next morning went into

city for breakfast, at a Drug Store-Morning 18th

Verticle on card:

Taken after breakfast morning 19th.
