Scope and Contents

A letter included by the same author is addressed to Polly Ballard, probably short of for Olivia Ballard, who is also mentioned in a news clipping in the 1944-1946 journal. Ferguson's diary is not related to Arbutus Lodge. Entries suggest that Ferguson lived near Glens Falls, NY. She comments on World War II events and talks about daily chores, concerts, house hunting, and visits with friends and family.
