{Bow------?} are having their picnic in Simcoe today. We hauled hay in the forenoon and had a small load to haul after dinner then Frank and I burned weeds on the old corn ground. We put up two bees next to Tobe and he got 3 stings and has a lovely eye, he and Frank went down town in the evening. It has been very hot and no sign of rain. | {Bow------?} are having their picnic in Simcoe today.

{Toby's father takes up the diary}
Friday August 18th
Frank and I went to Pickfords to help him finish his Alsike, he was in a terrible state with his cracked ribs. We finished about 10-30, he had a little more than 6 bags. I came home as soon as we were done and Frank went to the creek for a swim. Hot and dry still, in the afternoon we hauled hay and put it up over the shed.
