Thursday September 10th

I got up at daylight this morning and had most of the chores done before breakfast. I was putting the harness on the horses after breakfast when Jim Banister came over and he helped me with the manure till noon. Hubert came over just before dinner and he and I worked all the afternoon. Harry Harding came over about 3 O'Clock and he stayed out with us till we quit work. Hattie went down town and Win came home with her they all stayed to tea and after tea I drove Win home and waited at Allan's corner until the boys came along. Then Harry drove up with me and held Joe while I went in and said goodbye to Miss Battersby, she leaves on Saturday for Brantford. It has been cold all day but much warmer than yesterday. Dick went to the dance at night and I don't know what time he got home.

Friday September 11th

I was up before it was light this morning It looked very like rain, in fact it did speinkle several times, Huv=bert came over about 8 O'Clock and we got a fairly good start, we hauled manure all day but I did not keep a count of the loads so I suppose Tobe will go for me. We expect them home toniu=ight but it is now 8.20 and there is no sign of them so I think we will have tea It has been a horrib;e day, such a strong, cold East wind, but it was a pretty good day to work.
