but they were way over on the other side of the gully. and by the time he got settled down he didn't feel like getting fixed up and walking down town through the mud. It has been a nice day with a cold wind. We don't know whether it rained last night or not, Enah is sure she heard it raining in the night and there was a puddle of water on the kitchen floor under the leak, and Frank's coat which he left out all night was wet but the ground and all the boards seemed dry and the ceiling over the pool in the kitchen was perfectly dry. I did a little more drawing to-night.

Monday November 24th

I spent the whole day in knocking down the rest of the old windmill and clearing up the debris. I am not quite through yet. This afternoon I had to go back and drive Mully, Jim and Snowdrop out of the east end of the gully into the other end through the bluegrass and field where Dad is plowing which is the way they got in. I took the two dogs with me so had quite a time with the cows. Dad. plowed and Huby husked corn all day. Frank brought Tiddum's carriage back mended to-night and he was tickled to death to see it again, and jump in it althoug the spring is stiffer now than it was.

Dick sent away for ten books for me to-day called "The Library of Original Saras" whcih I saw advertisewd in the "Literary Digest." It is supposed to be a collection of the all the documents which have made history and trranslated. It cost $35.10 cash. I borrowed the money from dad. It seems a lot to pau=y in a nunch, but books aremighty nice things to have especially for the long winter evenings on the farm. I suppose if I was town, the same mmount would dribble ot in. ckels and dimes in the course of the year. Dad. had to go to a school board meeting to-night and Frank went down woth him to see the moving picture show. I guess I'll draw a little. It has been colder and very windy with two or three blinding but short snow squalls.
