the seal is “悲鴻㞢印”. well, “大暑” is the 12th solar terms; most would treat it as a day, not a period. that, in the year of 1935, 大暑 is on 24th july  https://www.hko.gov.hk/tc/gts/time/calendar/pdf/files/1935.pdf

:) FYI. It is not rare to see these Chinese number characters:  十(10), 廿(20), 卅(30), and the rarity - 卌(40). The twenty written in the test is the simplified 廿. https://zhidao.baidu.com/question/623703784028412684.html
