Dick spent most of the morning in bed and went to Sim coe this after noon to have his picture taken Cecil MPherson was over after school to-night picking plums for Enah. Cool.
Tuesday September 10th
Dick and Dad. finished covering the field with manure by to-night. Frank and I spent most of the day gathering up the wind falls in the orchard as we want to turn the sheep in there. It was quite a job but we got them all. Tupper was over this morning to get me to do his chores for him while he goes to the London Fair. so I went over to-night to see what to do. Aunty, Aunty Alice and Cousing Clair were over to tea to-night. Miss Kerney & Mrs. Hallam came over to-day and bought some plums from Enah. Cold wind.
