Harkness – MacGillivray Stories

In 1962, my mother wrote this diary in the last year we lived in Culcheth, Lancashire. I was about twelve or thirteen then. My mother was not the sort of person to write detailed notes in her diary. Nevertheless, it lists the names of her long-forgotten friends and acquaintances, mostly now deceased, as well as social events and family matters.

Thus, I will have to risk some repetition here, as these friends, acquaintances, social events, and family matters are also mentioned elsewhere in another book, No Woman No Cry, Vol. 2 (Harkness I.H. and Harkness R.C., 2023).
