Today was grey, rough and cold. I spent the day sitting on deck and must admit I am not feeling at all well. I met Mr. Joseph Paxton after dinner in the lounge. A small man about 75 years of age and born in Manchester and owns a textile plant in New York. This was his first trip home in 40 years. He has a son George E. Paxton and we thot that quite a coincidence as George’s father name was Joseph too. We had a nice long talk and when we parted hoped to see one another again. He was positive he was related to the Paxtons in some way. But I never saw him again, and sometimes I have wondered if I really ever did see him. Perhaps he was sea-sick as I was. Retired early and was glad to get to bed.
