Hotel and livery, Ramaley and I for 8 days- $17.00. Train seven hours late so Mr. Nevin for $2.00 drove us to Divide to catch the Cripple Creek-Denver train.

Train at divide was late, made us miss train at Colorado Springs Colorado Springs, Colorado, and as the later train was quite late we went to the Alamo Hotel Alamo Hotel, Colorado Springs and stayed all night, first going to college grounds and to Alamo Hotel Stratton Park, Colorado Springs where we heard fine music by Colorado Midland band. Supped at Depot restaurant Depot Restaurant, Colorado Springs, an excellent but high priced place.
