a rivet came out of a section of the knife & it worked under another section and loosened all the rivets in the head of the knife. After dinner I went back to finish what I had left with the scythe, and worked & sweltered down there till three o'clock when I came up and got Queen ready for Marj. She took Harry B & Gay with her and left the baby with me I thought she would play in the sand pile by herself but she "howled dismal" if I moved ten feet away for her so I took her with me back to the little meadow and sat her on a pile of hay with her tin horn while I mowed the grass around the fences and then it looked so much like rain that I came up. Harvey Shand was mowing the school yard and he cut the little piece of timothy & marsh grass that I had had to leave for me which was very decent of him. I tried to put the baby to sleep and did get her off but she woke up as soon as I put her down and by this time it was so late that it was no use going out to cultivate so I weeded a little in the flower garden. It rained a short shower. Marj. & the kids got home after six some time after having terrible times. They put Queen in Clark Horn's barn when the shower came up
