Edward Salley Baby Book - Part Seventeen

Baby’s First Party: Edward Juniors birthday party ??? Marjorie and Alice ? ?? ??? ??? and ?? Bently and their mothers and ??? Kiddee had a good time.

Inscription: All homage to the King, this day of days,/ For he holds his court and seeks thy praise;/ Each tribute fair he will requite/ With crows and gurgles of delight.

Notes: The writing on this page is in very light pencil and is especially difficult to interpret. At first I thought the inscription was referring to God, because of the capitalization of “King,” but the reference to “gurgles of delight” indicate that the King is the baby.
