They have been planning & plotting all week to go to the woods to-day but the best laid schemes of mice & men having a habit of going aglee at times they beguiled the time by playing Jack & school all morning and Tid. at least seemed to enjoy it, he spoke of going to the woods but Aunty assured him that it was too wet. Frank & I sheared the three yearling lambs to-day but didn't try to do any more as they didn't shear very easily.
