didn't go down till noon, I started to cut the lawn but the mower broke so went out and helped Frank put in his school garden and I also sowed my Experimental Union plots of cabbage, kale & rape, and didn't get through till half past twelve, then we came in and got dressed up and intended to go for a swim at the stump but before we left we heard the school bell ringing so hurried down thinking we would be late, they didn't begin for quite awhile however and then all there was to it was a lot of speeches and we were up there till about four o'clock.
