It was about noon when he left. This after noon I started to rake up the rubbish under the old willow tree. Dad. and Frank did chores. Frank walked down to the mill and got a little chop and went down early to tea at Aunty Alices. It froze hard last night and although sunny it has been a cold windy day.

Sunday April 8th

Frank and I got an early start and went down to Sunday school and then to church. It being Easter Sunday there was a pretty good-sized congregation and we were rather late getting out, Dad. came down as far as Aunty's with the baby I guess he was too late to come to church and he waited there and went home with Enah, Dick went over with Frank but I stayed down town to dinner. After dinner Aubrey and I had a game of chess and then after Frank had come down again, Gladys, Aubrey, Frank and I went for a walk up the beach. Frank and I came home to tea but went down afterwards. Enah went down to church but we were too late. I went for. a walk with Marj. after church and went down to Aunty's for awhile before I came home with Enah and Frank
