We started at the corn to-day, got some pulled but didn't take the team out. Field very wet. Cloudy & drizzly.
Thursday October 7th
Frank hauled down a small load of corn on the waggon box with side boards and George & I cut road and pulled more. It is a very poor crop and large patches drowned out. We all went down to see Sid Goodwin to-night but there was no one home. We went on down to Huby's but they had callers so we went from there down to Aunties but they were just going to bed so we came home. Cool and cloudy.
Friday October 8th
Hauled more corn to-day & got some chicken feed some of which I took out home this after noon. Froze last night.

Hauled 2 loads of corn to-day but last nights frost nipped it. Bond says another frost will make it unfit for packing but it is milder to-night.
