with him, from there as he is going to stay a few days with Roy before he leaves. Very nice day a little warmer We had to shut old 4700 up in the boxstall to stay to day as to-night Dad. noticed he had rubbed a big wad of wool of his shoulder on the bars where he was trying to get through, he aparently enjoys it just as much in confinement as he does when out in the yard where he sees & hears the other sheep.

Saturday September 6th

Although Dad feels very miserable yet he worked all day, we didn't get a very early start this morning. but had Frank nearly all the time to help us and I think we got out 14 loads of manure. We were delayed for awhile this after noon when the spreader was incapacitated through a lot of stuff being jammed between the beater and the comb above it. Dad lost quite a little time adjusting it.

Lila has been over all day and has spent nearly the whole time riding Frank's wheel up and down the road, she went down w=twon on it once for Enah. Aunty has been down town nearly all day preparing for her journey. Fine day - pretty warm this afternoon
