He read it up at tea time and came to the conclusion it was asaturia although it didn't show the regular symptoms, but after tea he walked down again to give it a boll, it must have been after midnight quite a bit when he got home I havent done much but chores all day cleared up a little around the back door. We moved the three hens and little chickens from the colony house outdoors to-day. Lila was over all day, she Quint and Win got back from Toronto last night.
