Monday October 16th

This morning Dad went down to Sam Law's again but he was not home but he found out that Vyse had been down and seen him anyway. I did chores around and cleaned up all I could find between the horse stable and the big barn. George Holden came about ten o'clock to pick the apples. His gang consisted of Hilt, Moor, Wiser and Billy Loan. They were here all day and got eight bbls {barrels} all together. Six of Canada Red's, 1 1/2 of Seek-no-Furthers, and 1/2 bbl of Spies.
