It was such an unusual occourance that we decided it must have been caused by seeing D.M. asleep in her bed. I tried ploughing this after noon and it went very nicely but was plenty wet enough yet in places. Dad. & Frank came out on their way home with some oats that they got at Jack Mason's and Dad. wants me to take Queen over to-morrow so that he can take some Manure down to Aunty's. Cold east wind this am. Milder to-night.
