place and then he drove me down to the L.E.& N. station where I caught the nine o'clock car. The weather couldn't have been nicer.

Friday November 21st

Dad. plowed all day and got on well. He was at it yesterday but it was frozen so hard he had a hard time Frank and I spent the morning throwing out ditches. This after noon we (Frank & I) went down town and got a load of coal as Huby sent a note over to say there was a car in. It is what they call washery not coal and is dull owing to the fact that it has been out in the weather for a year, it is also full of clinkers. Frank & I went down town to-night and he went to the Women's Institute dance in the hall. It has been milder & stormy looking.

Saturday November 22nd

Dad. was up at five o'clock this morning and so was in time to see Frank getting home from the dance. He just changed his clothes and went to work without any sleep. Dad. plowed all day and got a lot done as he had such a good start. Frank and I put up the straw that was on the barn floor this morning into the mow. This afternoon I did chores and we unloaded the coal we got yesterday. Frank went down town to-night and met George who came up from Allanburg to spend Sunday. Frank went to bed as soon as he got home. There was supposed to be an eclipse of the sun this morning but it was too cloudy to see it. Cloudy all day.

Sunday November 23rd

Frank and I went down to Sunday school and I alone went to church. Marj. came over here to dinner and we have all been home all after noon and evening. Frank, Tid and George went out for awhile with the rifle this after noon Quint came over here to tea and spent the evening. The Grand Trunk round house burned down last night and ruined the two engines. Fine but a rather cold wind.
