Sunday, September 21, 1919

Fair bright windy day. Up 9 A.M. To College to take students to church. To Church and S.S. Walked home with Doris Smith. Read a little. Out to John Myers. Agnes there. To Epworth League. Fine meeting. Walked around town with Ed Gemlich & Leland Goddard. To bed 10 P.M.

**********
I was unable to locate a Doris Smith in Schenectady, but I did find a Dorothy Smith of about the right age.  In 1920 she was a stenographer at GE and was 19 years old. Was she the Doris Smith whom Stanford seems to be dating?  Could be. We'll have to wait for further clues.

Ed Gemlich may be Edward Gemlich, a 16-year-old boy who lived in Schenectady with his parents.  Leland Goddard is also a 16 year old living in Schenectady in 1920. Could they have been friends of Stanford? Perhaps. They might be members of the Epworth League.
