Aunty Alice and I got home on Wednesday night, after having a tedious journey and a long wait in Jarvis and I was very glasd to get home. Frank and Dick met us at ther station and Enah was down town and we drove home but upset in the lane, no-one wa shurt but Joe was very frightened and broke the harness a little. The sky in thennirth-west was all aglow when we got in as that night the ig Lithopgraphing works in Simcoe burned down with a quarter of a illin dollars loass Enah hasd written this up for the last few days since i got back as I have not got into the way of it yet, as she said we went to the old country dance in the town hall last bight but I went first to see marj. who has the measles - and then over to the club. That was really enough for me as I have not been t bed before midnight for a week but I went onb over to the dance and kept on my feet till about four o'clock then I wernt down and began to feel sleepy so i came home and got to bed by five. Frank stayed until they wound up and got home about an hour later, consequently neither of us got up very early, however we manage dtoget anothe rload of gravel hauled from Cantelon's and I took ten doz. eggs over to Jack Martin and he paid me 48 cts a dozen for them, three cts over the market price. I went to bed early to-night.
