May 6, 1918 – Supposed to sail today
We were to sail at 11 o’Clock. Everything all ready. Steam to the throttle **** t***d ever(?). Tugs came to take us out in the streem(?) when received order that we would not sail until the 8th. Naturally every one flocked ashore. I think there was one officer left. The doctor has not been aboard since Saturday for 15 minutes.
