could go on boat to Toronto on Sat. In after noon Had Mrs Jones & Mr Stuart for tea. I went out to milk & walked on over to Kennedy berry patch just coming away so as Dave saw me he came over to me with a big plug hat on. He ready to go to station so hadn't time to talk much. I only wanted to see his face to see if he looked Happy!
