Friday, Feb 24-1928. Tallahassee. A part the morning with the Survey people, and at 2:10 drove off in Jacksonville, whae I arrived at 8:00 P.M. Put up at Hotel Mason. Rained all day Saturday, Feb 25, 1928. Jacksonville Set up late and took life easily. Then studied Wrick's Carey paper and made a lot of notes /pre- paratory to writing a review of it. In the afternoon walked around in town, and found it to be rather in type that of the north than of the swn. labeled smith. Drew attention by the number of hotels, large and small, but more particular by the fact that wooden houses have rooms for rent. But in the way of restaurants this town is far behind New Orleans. George Washington hotel is the newest and largest, costely goes to it, and I tried to get into it last night but could not, all filled. Rained all morning. Again at night and getting cooler.
