TUESDAY, MARCH 15, 1870.
Charley has been threshing oats too-day. I have been busy at sundry jobs. We had visitors out from Dover. Mrs. Hall and Kate Riddell. I had to spend part fo the time with them of course. Kate is quite a fine girl, in a good many respects. To night there came an old brother, to stop with us, by chance. He proved to be a good old man--a local preacher of our own body. His name is Henry Fox. He lives near Toronto. I was quite proffited with his company.
