Travelogue of a long journey from Monona to Honolulu
Drifting through a cluttered diary style narrative, the piece recalls an entertaining program at Monona and campus activities, then follows a pupil drilling trip to Calmar, with reports of teachers’ contracts, a university play slated for April 12, and a travelogue crossing the South with stops in New Orleans, Texas, El Paso, California, and San Francisco. It notes a dynamite blast near Colton, a detour via the Salt Lake Route, and a sea voyage toward Honolulu with various travelers aboard, including Mrs. Mel and Rev. W. A. B. Uren, detailing landscapes, encounters, and changing trains.
