Saturday October 14th We just did chores this morning and oiled the buggy and this after noon I got down town by soon after one and got Miss McQueen and Marjorie and went to Vittoria after chestnuts, we went up to Farrar's to try the woods that Helen Dunkin told me the big nuts were in. The woods are accross the road from the house and in front of them but two or three fields back, and there is a lane in to them. We drove Joe in the lane and tied her behind a clump of trees out of the wind and sight of the house. We trailed all through the woods which was nearly all chestnut trees but never found a nut but coming out we struck a little tree along the fence that was loaded and the burrs open. I climbed it and shook them all off and they picked up enough to satisfy them of big nuts very big ones. We then went up to Charlie Dunkin but he wasn't home, we tried a couple of other trees but didn't draw much in the way of nuts. I also took a couple of pictures and so did Marj. I didn't get home till nearly eight. Colder to-day. Sunday October 15th I went to church this morning but none of the rest did. Dad. Enah and the baby went out to Tupper's for dinner. Frank had to do Ben's chores but came down town for dinner. We three boys went to Aunty's for dinner I was in the drugstore all the after noon listening to Dr. Jolley expound his religion which is interesting though heterodoxy. At four o'clock when Bob. was relieved at the telephone by Golly Bob. Johnnie. Said. Davis, Pansy Fischer, Arlof McCarter & I walked around the hill and I went to Aunty's for tea. Aunty & I went to church to-night and afterwards I went home with Marj. who to my delight and surprise consented to go to the picture show on Tuesday with We had a new preacher to-day a Mr. Wright from Huron College. He wasn't bad till he got excited and then he went wild. To-night he was very much wrought up over some of Pastor Russel's literature which had been circulated about town during the after noon. It has been a lovely day Monday October 16th I took the crosscut saw over to Uncle Ward to sharpen and went on down and got him a file to do it.
