User-Contributed Transcription me it would have tired her so much: and then when I found there were no places to be had in the sleeping car I thought how well it was mother was sure of a good bed at home. I went through three or four cars before I could find a seat, carrying my heavy satchel - I'll check it next time - and then I found one of the men who belonged on the car and I asked him how much difference it would make in the time of my reaching Corry if I awaited in Buffalo till morning - I told him that I could find no seat and I could not possibly stand all the way - I was so tired I could hardly keep the tears where they belonged while I spoke to him. He took pity on me and found me a seat and I got into it in double quick time I can tell you. I think I slept in that chair. The seats in that car were chairs with a rest for the head
