Dad. had to go up to Miss McCoy's this morning to tend to a cow. I drove him up and then went down town and got some stuff and called for him again.

He and I went down to the 3 o'clock car to see Hazen off and then I went down and fooled around the {dook?} with Wodyer all the after noon. Dad. went down to tea and church to-night. I did chores and then went down in time to meet church coming out, went for a short walk & came home with Dad. Raw.

Monday October 23rd

Mr. McEwen came down this morning and bought the bunch of lambs & the old one, he gave $100.00 for the 8. I drove him down to the radial at 11 o'clock and then went up and told Ham I had sold his ram but he didn't care if he can use ours. This after noon I drove up to Dunkin's to hurry him up with the pedigree's but I don't know whether it was much use. To-night Frank and I went down town to see about getting a car to ship our sheep in. Dad did odd jobs and started shingling the hen house. Young Ham came and got his ram and paid for him. Lovely day but cool.
