Dick f=did not get home last night till somewtime after I did and then we talked till after 2 O'Clock. After doing p the usual round of chores, we caught the 5 roossters and took them ob=ver to Jack martin. It was dinner time when we got home from there. After noon we put on a small load of hay to take over to the other barn for the cows and calves> Frank went to skate after school. After tea Toby and I went down towen he to skate and I to a school board meeting where we had a lively time, it looked at first as if we wuld not get anuthingg done but it became quite peacable towards the close.
