Jim Blakie, Frank Wiser, Katie Spain's husband and I were crowded into the back seat. Charlie Martin and Miss McCoy had the seat ahead. We went in and saw the church and it looks pretty fancy. They are painting a high pattern around the wall as high as high wainscotting would be and rimming around the windows and little round pictures all around the walls. After chirch `~Frank and I went down to the dock and he stayed down to Huby's for dinner and so did Dick. I went home to dinner. After dinner I went back and took a oicture of the mound and after a while Daddy Tige the grey kitten and I went back to John Wess McBrides and Dad took him a neck yoke for the one he broke. We had a look all over the new farm. There was no-body around. We came back by our woods and wheat field. Dick got home about half past five and Rank about six. Frank went up creek with Quint and walked home from Black Creek Bridge. Daddy, Enah and I walked down to church. Nothing much doing ecept for Mr. Hobbs who spent msy of his time trying to keep the preacher's dog out.I hung around awhile afterwards but soon came home. Frank was greatly taken with the full moonto-night. He never saw it so big.
