Friday November 3rd

First thing this morning I went over to Bill Donald's to tell them about the thrasher. He had not got back from his sister's funeral yet but Mrs. Donald said she would send word to the men. I came through Cruise's but did not see any thing of him. I also told Louise's. I got home a little before the machine came. I did not do a thing all day except a few chores. I haven't had a better day all summer for although there have been lots of days when I have not done any more but have not had the pleasure of seeing the others work so hard. We got all the buck wheat threshed but it did not turn out very well only 70 bushels and got started on the alsike. We will finish it up to-morrow. Bill Donald got home at noon and helped us till night. Mrs. Donald also came over to help Enah and so did Mrs. Vyse. It was a fine day to-day cold but not as bad as yesterday and is milder to-night. Aunty went down to Huby's for tea and Huby came over with her after tea.
