James Cameron Island 19th, May 1902. Told notice this day (?) the one who done it done it last night and I know who he is, no one would do it but a very guilty person and a rodier or thy. I know the guilty person but I will chose this to everyone. Rained tonight, a dust arid day. 20th, a very fine day. Leander took his boots from the shore. I suppose going some place to get it. Fine eat, don't tell me any they do the Redcoat ploughing in an easy place, taking and pulling anything I have out of my way, so I will have to look for there. Wind. The soger crossed Leander to Je Lemay with his boat Girls working in the garden. La Bullernux tree cut down at Point, had no business to cut it.
