My tooth was not quite so sore this morning and I felt a little better so we all packed up and went to town according to arrangements. Ina came this morning and stayed here alone getting a great stroke of work done. Enah had been up at the dentists this morning and she and Dad. were at Aunty's for dinner. Dad. & Dick went to Simcoe on the one car to see Frank Reid and show him the court proceedings. Dad. was delighted at having found his watch which he lost a week or so ago. Mrs Andrew Innes picked it up on Hallam's crossing the day he lost it and Alex Spain told him this morning that she had found one. I went up to the dentists right after dinner and had my sore wisdom tooth pulled. There were a couple of abscesses on it. He froze it and then did some work for Roy Dell while the freezing was taking effect. Marj. was supposed to have some teeth filled this after noon but Enah came up there and told me Marj. didn't feel like coming up so I had a pyorrhea treatment in her time. I went into the bank on my way home as I had notice from them that I had overdrawn my account so I renewed my note and borrowed another $100.00

They got me hot salt water to rinse it with and that helped it a little. Dad. went down to the lake for me to see if there was any coal as we are just out. Mid. told him they had none but if I came down he would borrow some soft coal for me. We got home about five o'clock both feeling pretty tough. Ina stayed and got tea ready and then walked home. She would have stayed all night if Marj. had coaxed her but as She was counting on going to an Horticultural lecture in the Hall to-night, Marj. didn't like to keep her. We both felt all in to-night and went to bed early. Bright & sunny but a little cold N.W. wind. Very cold to-night.

this after noon, besides a toothache I had a weak & watery feeling around my middle. Marj. thought it was something terrible like dysentary so was bound I should go to the doctor or have him out. I disapproved of both proposals so she sent Harry B over to the school house with a note for Mabel asking her to lend a couple of boys to go over and get Dad. Stanton Munroe and Norman Dove answered the call and Dad. came out and reassured Marj. Sunny but cold raw wind.
