May 11, 1931:

"We moved in last night and, though the bedroom wasn’t exactly furnished, we had a Simmons box spring similar to the ones the Vanderbilts, Astors, Carnegies and all those people have, and our sleeping bags. With a nice fire in the fireplace we felt very comfortable. A little fire is so pleasant to undress in front of and such fun to watch after the lights are out, and with all the dormers and peaks and corners in the bedroom the light has a wonderful chance to dance about on the logs . . ."
