Frank has been picking strawberries all day again and made $1.35, this has been his best day yet. Dad. plowed in the old garden all morning, he and the baby and he finished it and disked it this after noon. I raked up the grass he cut along the ditch this morning and went out and spread a few piles of manure which were in his road for plowing. This after noon I went down town to get some stuff. Huby saw me and wanted me to go up and look at Bill Slocomb's buggy, he wants fifty dollars for it. It looks like a good one. I went down to Aunty's to cut a ham in two for them and Aunty Alice was at a bridge up at Miss Buckwell's. This has been another beautiful day.

I went over to Art Quanbury's this morning and got our post auger and Dad and I put in a post at the gap between the two fields across the gully and put up the bar and let the cattle into the west field, we then went along Ivey's line in the gully but couldn't do much to it John was over in Ivey's having walked under the fence along the creek bottom. We had dinner on time and got ready and both if us went down at half past one to Mrs. Smith's funeral. We went up to the cemetry and there was a big crowd there. We went from there over to Barwell's and got Zeitha and broguht her down, she and I were to have gone foe ==r a rid eto-night but Enah asked some more over to have some music so we postponed our ride. We saw Mers. Bagley & Marj. up at the cemtry and they said Essie couldn't come over to-night as it was choir practice but Marj. would only she didn;t like to come alone, so dad. told her if she saw Wu=innie coming over to come with her and if not to sen dword wait till I called for her, so as Winnie came over to tea I went right after tea to get Marj. I picke dher up at Silverthorne's, she had come pover to pay for her dad's lodge dues. We drove down town to see if we could get Elva but she had too bad a cold to come We had a very nice evening being entertained by Zeith's & Enah's music on thre one hand and the baby catching moths on the other; he styaed up till midnight and except for evincing a few cannibalistic passions early in the evening when he bit poor Marj; jhe was very good asnd well-behaved. Dad. gave him aheart to heart talk onthe occasion of his one offecce and I don;t think Marj. suffered any permanent injuryy.
