I didn't get in much time at the chicken house to-day as this morning I had to make a trough for them and kill a cockrel for dinner as Mabel was here for breakfast & dinner. This after noon Tupper and Charlie Butler came over and Tupper got six old hens for a dollar apiece. A little later Marj. called me and said Mr. Bagley was here. He had walked out and proposed walking back but we persuaded him to stay for tea and I drove him home afterwards.
