Saturday August September 16th Stayed in bed this morning till about half past eight as I was not very well. I lay around all morning reading "The Millionaire Baby". Dick went down town and made a dollar peddling {illegible} {hills?}, Daddy went back and shovelled ditches. This afternoon Dick, Ferdie and Lissy went back shooting with the shotgun and a rifle but they did not shoot anybody, strange to say. Daddy and Enah went down to Mr. Skey's funeral. One of us ought to {have?} gone over to Bannister's to thrash this afternoon but under the circumstances could not. Mr. Highland was here again to buy the blue grass seed and offered Dad. sixty-five dollar. He said he would come again on Monday. Warm and nice to-day. Sunday September 17th Daddy and Enah & I set out for St. Williams this morning and Dick went down to church and Sunday School and stayed all day till five o'clock. I took a dose of salts this morning. The first I have ever taken I think. I stayed home from school once a long time ago to take one but got out of it after nine o'clock. I read and drew pictures most of the day, doing the chores by degrees. Al. Faulkner was over to borrow the double harness, but as Dad had it with him he said it did not matter this is the first time Dad has used it for a month or two. Charlie Ferris and the two Quanberry's came through from the lane. They had been taking pictures. Tige and I had a very enjoyable day of it. {I ate well?} dinner & lunch I wanted {illegible} as I came to it, and Dick and I had our Tea to-gether upstairs. They came home just as we got through with a good supply of peaches. They had some hickory fruits which they said {need?} ripening up. Today Emery fixed up a hoe and sent it to me to cut corn with. They said it was hot to-day. It may have been, but I was not.
