Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.
I forgot to say last night that Mr. Huffman has gone to Presides to the officers reserve camp. He got a commission as second lieutenant. I am sorry to see him go – but I didn’t see him go for he never said good-bye. I just heard that he went. Mr. Duncan told me at the dance Saturday night that Mr. Huffman wished him to say good-bye to all the Cauthorn friends. That was a short friendship that didn’t pan out as I had hoped. He got digusted with me for dancing and never tho’t I amounted to much. I’m sorry because I liked him.
