The boys all came home right after church but Roy hadn't come in at 10-45 so I hitched up Joe and went after him it is a dark, muddy night. I met him Just this side of the Woodsons, after we got in he had his supper and it was nearly 1 O'Clock before we went to bed.

Monday Oct 1st. Up early and drove Roy to the station Every thing was very wet I opened up some ditches to run some water off, then Toby Frank, and I went over to Blakies and got 10 sacks of oats and the fanning Mill After dinner I drove Hattie down to Mrs Martins funeral then I came home and got Frank and took him down to see Mr Smith, he is going to School tomorrow. D. V. and is going {to?} Mr. Smiths room. It felt so cold when I got home that I carried in all the plants but now at 9.30 it does not seem so cold. The boys have Just finished taking their bath.

Tuesday Oct 3. After breakfast Tobe and I cleared out the old corn crib and the yard. We are going to plough {for?} garden. In the afternoon Harrie, Toby & I went up to the cemetary and took {sack?} and some {fine lot dressing?} up, on our way home. We stopped at Mrs Battersbys & got the ferns. It was raining quite a shower when we got home.
