From 8-year old Hilda’s diary:
Aunt Tillie called for me today and brought me home. I told her all about the circus and how I didn’t like it. She was very angry and then she asked me why I couldn’t be like other children. I didn’t know I wasn’t.
As I mentioned in an earlier post, last month I was given some of Hilda’s photographs and letters. Included was this postcard of Hilda and Brownie that she wrote to her father on August 11, 1912 - the date of today’s diary entry!
