Sunday October 10th

We didn't get up till after seven this morning but Frank Enah and I managed to get down to church. This afternoon I sat around the house for awhile and then Dad. drove down to see Huby so I went down with him as far as Aunty's and stopped in there. Roy & Vernon had gone up to Huby's so Aunty Alice & I walked over Brant Hill to see the Millman's. Orm's foot wasn't paining so much but looked very bad and he couldn't bear it to the ground. Quint had borrowed a pair of crutches for him from Mrs. Lawson. About five they all went down town to say goodbye to the Ansley's & Tibbet's so I rode down as far as Aunty's with them and then home with Dad. to do chores. They all but Mrs. Millman came over in the car a little later and Mr. Millman, Mr. Brown, Quint, Frank & Nita all went back to the woods to shoot crows. When I got dressed Kathleen and I walked back over to the cottage stopping in for a minute at Aunty's and the rest all came over in the car soon after. We were all over there to tea and all evening. Nita brought us home about ten o'clock. They all intend to go back in the morning so we bid them good-bye. Sunny but cold wind all day. I didn't see anything much of Roy or Vernon to-day as they went over to the Woodson's to tea.
