inhabitants of this part of the country, but I guess only drowned worms as he wasn't hardened with luck on his return. Winnie came over after dinner and I drove her home to-night. Enah to Tiddums down town and I shunted the buggy down to the side walk for her Win went down & came back with her. To day at noon we placed a ring just below the septum nose of poor Dreadnought. It has rained once or twice to-day and been cloudy & sunny & hot by turns.

Sunday May 25th

Frank went to Sunday school and church this morning but was the only member of the family who attended. Dad & I went up to Ham Thompson's to tell him we named Dreadnought. and he will soon get the registration papers. We were up there quite awhile and it was after noon when we got back.

This after noon we put the saddle on Ginger - and gave her a lesson, I didn't get on her because Dad. says it is no use "breajking" her, she has to be "trained." Dad, & Enah & Tiddums drove out to Shand's but there was no body home. Lila and Frank went out after merells but didn't get any. Nice day rather inclined to be cloudy, quite cool to-night.
