Scope and Contents

Entries in this journal suggest that Bean has become more settled in her life as a missionary. Her daily activities include tracting, street meetings, and visiting with church members and investigators. She writes of sight-seeing in London in her free time and of her impression of the city. Additionally, she writes of her association with the other missionaries in the London area and of preparations for mission conferences. It is also in this journal that Bean makes reference to a friendly relationship with fellow missionary and future husband, Roy D. Thatcher. "It has been hard for us to keep our dignity today. We, Margaret and I, have even been guilty of a two-step around the room with elders Thatcher and Porter" (November 27).
