Left there at 2 pm and got subway at Grand Central for South Ferry, changing at Wall St. Got ferry about 3.45 meeting there Mrs Pembros and a number of other ladies and gentlemen, and went to Staten Island, about 20 or 25 minutes run. From Staten Island wharf went in tram for about ½ hr to a home for old ladies – all Britishers.
On the way out saw a motor upturned and the driver pinned down under it, so we turned up the car and pulled him out.
