February Sunday 27 1927

My last single Sunday. Attended Sunday school at the Mission with the boys then drove down and helped Jean milk then brought her up home for tea. Roscoe and Aileen were here too. If all my double Sundays are as happy as my single ones have been in the past I will surely be a happy man. Fast ride home behind Gyp in the cutter.

Monday 28

Started to shovel out side road in morning then Dad drove down and we got Mr. Barker then drove over to Hyndmans to see some cattle. Went to town in the afternoon, did some shopping, and then out to "Bendemere" to help Ernie fix up his books. Home and in bed about 11.30.

March Tuesday 1

Spent the first day of March down at Barkers. Broke road through side road in the morning. After dinner Mr. Barker, Dan, and I brought the cow and 2 stockers Mr Barker bought for Jean and I home to Hazel Grove. Came home early at night and went right to bed.

March Wednesday 2 1927

Spent the last day of my boyhood at home helping Carl haul out manure. Upset a big load at the end of the lane. Jock Lushman came up in the afternoon and we had an unique experience with {Pifhers?} dog. Had my last car ride when I spent my last evening and danced with and kissed Miss Barker good-bye for the last time. Even so it was the happiest evening I ever spent with Jean.
