Frank and Charlie fixed it up but it took quite awhile and it was nearly noon by the time we left with our load, we took it down to Kolbe's to weigh it and as it was after twelve when we arrived there, the office was locked up and we had to wait for our weight till one o'clock, when Kolbe came along. I went over to Huby's for awhile as he stays at the office till one o'clock on Saturdays. It was pretty late when we got home with our load and didn't do much but chores after dinner after we had put off the load most of it in the horse stable. Dad. went over to Jack's in Frank's place this morning. Frank will be through over there to-morrow as Billy is feeling well enough to get out. I went down to the station to-night and met Marj. she came back on the Grand Trunk. Milder to-day.
