Monday.
President was much disturbed over the Mexican situation. After lunch he had a long consultation with Secretary of State Bryan and and the Assistant Secretary John Bassett Moore. We played our usual game of golf at the Virginia Club. The President won by one hole.
After dinner, the President’, Secretary Tumulty and Dr. Grayson sat on the back porch of the White House. The Mexican situation being the chief sub- of convversation. After- At nine o’clock we went for a ride in the auto down Pennsylvania Avenue to Peace Monument, then to Massachusetts Avenue and 16th. Street to Rock Creek Park. Returning about 10.30. The President was very tired, and apparently worried, but after getting into the Park was it was cool, he slept, at intervals. While awake he was unusually quiet, and showed that he was in deep thought.
He retired at 10.45 after receiving his customary High Frequency Treatment given by his Physician.
