Cleveland appears in pepper-and-salt
mixed gray suit. Once in a while Mr..
Cleveland will take short drive in the
afternoon, but he cares more for sailing
in his catboat than driving.
Joseph Jefferson and his sons often
accompany Mr.. Cleveland on his fishing
excursions. After dinner Mr.. Cleveland
smokes upon the piazza for an hour,
chats with his wife, laughs with baby
Ruth and then the Cleveland family re-
tire. But few callers are received at
Gray Gables. Mr.. Cleveland is there
for rest and recreation, ana does not
care to be disturbed. During the last
few days he has necessarily received
good many. mostly representatives of
leaging papers.
Mrs. Cleveland spends the morning
hours at her household duties. Baby
Ruth takes up a good deals of time.
After lunch she assists her husband in
his correspondence if she can. Then
her favorite horse is harnessed to the
'phaetOn and Mrs. Cleveland goes for
drive. Sometimes she is accompanied
by the coachman, sometimes by the
nurse and baby Ruth. but rarely does
she drive alone. The first visit is to the
postoffice at BuZzard's Bay. Mrs.
Cleveland does not always wait for the
mail to be handed to her, but often
springs lightly out of the phaeton and
enters the pOStoffice. After that the,
drive varies. Sometimes it is to the cot
tage of the Jeffersons. sometimes she
drives directly back to Gray Gables.
After the drive Mrs. Cleveland enter
tainS her visitors, if there are any, and
answers her correspondence.
Sunday morning Mrs. Cleveland drives
to the little Methodist church at Bourne,
where she attends service. Mr.. Cleve-
land remains at home. Mrs. Cleveland
has made many friends while at Gray
Gables by her simple and unaffected
manner.
