Dad. went down as soon as he could get ready and was down nearly all day helping Huby & Quint make arrangements. He was pretty tired to-night as he said he was on his feet nearly all day and he, Quint & Huby walked home from the cemetery, they went up on the one o'clock car. He said Aunty Maude hadn't suffered a particle at the last but just slept away. Frank went down right after breakfast and got Pickford's engine & saw. Pickford & Arthur came back with him and we sawed the pile up easily before dinner. It looked a little rainy so Pickford wouldn't stay for dinner. This after noon Frank hauled the last load of wheat down and then went down in the buggy and got a bag of flour. Cloudy to-day and raining hard to-night.

Friday March 23rd 25th

Dad. went down again this morning and Marj. went down to church and stayed down this after noon to sit with Aunt Ida while Aunty & Aunty Alice went out. Dad. brought Marj's old wheel over when he came at noon and gave it to Tid. for a prize for going to school till Easter. I spent the morning doing chores and this after noon cleaned up the grass a little out at the side of the house. Frank spent most of the after noon making Tid a blackboard which he had promised as part of the bribe to get Tid to go to school. Tid has had a great time with his wheel. When Marj. came home to-night she had to go through Sid Goodwin's place and back of Jack's long house as Mr. Zealand was standing out in his yard popping across the road with a 22 rifle as she thought at Jack's chickens and she was afraid to take chance at going in front of him.
