June 9, 1901

Black Diamond. 

I walked into the saloon in Diamond this evening and looked around at the group that had gathered around. Bianca told me that she was about to be engaged and I congratulated her, saying that Joe was a good man for the most part. We joked about how they weren’t ready to create a mini Joe though and I agreed the world didn’t need one of those. 

We talked about how Nat and Jimmy loved going to the Russ Hotel and I met a man named Jaspar who had just opened up a shop in Pearce. He said it was a place to have beers, cigars, and to play poker. We talked more and I worked behind the bar, handing out drinks as people came into the saloon. People played poker while others danced and we had a good time together.
