it down this afternoon. He also harrowed over the old garden back of the shop and sowed corn on it with the drill. I drove Aunty & Aunty Alice up to the cemetry this after noon and to-night went down to see Marj. Lovely day. When I got home to-night I was quite surprised Sunday to find Dad. talking to Dick in the kitchen the rest had all gone to bed. I thought as Dick didnt come up on the train he wouldn't be here but he came with Ade and a Mr. Meddlin in Ade's car. He has to go back to-morrow as he didn't get his discharge. I guess from all accounts they had lively times here to-night. Ade brought up a bottle of whiskey & one of port wine and they had finished a flask or so on the way up and on coming into the house. Mr. Meddlin began to to feel his oats. They all had a glass of wine around to celebrate Dick's homecoming and then one to celebrate Peace as the treaty was signed to-day although no body took much notice of it. Mr. Meddlin passed a glass of wine across the table to some one and George rescued it from going down the lamp chimney, then he (Meddlin) kissed Enah a couple of times telling her she shouldn't mind as he had brought her boy home. I giuess she didn't. To wind up with as they were going out to the car he fell over himself and just about cracked his "Bean."
