in such a small space, however and went up to Holloway's place this side of Lynn Valley where he lit and went into Simcoe for gasoline They said he knew very little about his engine. A good proportion of the town saw him and heard him as he flew right down over the pond. It has been freezing hard the last few nights but the days have been mild and sunny, to-day especially nice.

Thursday November 8th

Although my arm has felt a good deal better to-day I have done nothing whatever to use it. Frank went back to John Wesses and thrashed till noon when they finished and he plowed all the after noon. Dad. did chores and sawed up some wood this morning and this after noon pulled up some more mangels besides doing chores. I helped Dad. saw up one limb of the old oak with one hand this morning and then went a walk back to the woods. I went to sleep before noon and was too lazy to get up to eat. This after noon I drove Enah & Tid down town and came home by the mill where I got a 40 lb. bag of oatmeal. To-night I went down town to see Marj. It has been a beautiful day and not freezing as hard to-night.
