gathering of Shorthorn breeders and {Irvine?} got picked up by a car. We sat around the Union Hotel listening to this Yankee talking to some others who had been at the sale till six o'clock and then went up to the station getting some biscuits on our way to do instead of supper. The Dover train left at 6.40 and we got home about 8.30.

Frank and I bagged up some oats and the corn we husked the other day and took it to the mill. We left the grist there and went on down and got a small load of coal as the road down at the corner is pretty bad. Most of the roads have been scraped. We came home around by Munros corner. This after noon we took Shands rack for their scales home and came back by the mill and got our chop. I took the turnip seed Frank had cleaned up into Arthur Preston and he gave me some swede turnip seed for it. They are all sick again over there. Frank Enah and I went down to church to-night. It has been a very nice day
