Sunday September 3rd

Arose late as is the custom on the Sabbath and husstled my self to get down and ring the bells - but Wiser was there so it did not matter. Dick did not get up till after I left so of course did not come down. I came out of Sunday School a little early and found Faulkner beating the starch out of one of his Arabs with a whip because it would not stand still to get its forelock clipped. I went home to dinner as we had a couple of young {roosters?} and Roy stayed down to Huby's. After dinner I started to read " A Houseboat on the Huby Roy and Aunty Maude came over about three and we all went back to the gully. Huby took the gun back which Daddy got last night but did not see any thing to shoot at. Daddy shot a couple of times at a crow this morning but missed him. I brought the cows up as it was {Margin note} about five and went into the house for a short time and when I came out they were just disappearing at the end of the lane. So Tige & I went back again and Tige got ahead of me and chased them up to the far end of the gully so I had to go after them. When we did get them milked the separator packed and we had to take it all apart and then only got very little cream. However we got down to church Huby went home to tea and Roy down to Woodsons. After church Enah went by to {illegible} Bessie's to {writing off the page} a supper {writing off the page} and is going {writing off the page} to walk. Some we {writing off the page} Roy. Dick came home to tea but went down after wards and got home shortly after we did. Daddy and I drove down to Huby's {writing off the page} got the big picture of "The Witlogh Blacksmith" and hung it in the kitchen. Very cool to-day.

Daddy went back to plow and I started to clean up around the drive-shed Huby and Lila came over about nine o'clock to get their chickens. I helped them catch all we could find and then drove them down and fot back about boon. Dick went back with Daddy andm they were going to take Mr. Vyse's roller back Dick rode on Dad's lap and they were just driving under the tree where the rollwe was when they hit an old stump. The tongue of the roller snapped off. The frame dropped down and they both fell off. Daddy burt his thigh pretty badly and Dick was scared. We did not have dinner till late and I went back with Dad and quite a plowiimng lwsson.
