SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1870.

This forenoon we finished our seeding. I feel thankful that this job is done. It has lasted so long that we are about ready for a change. We have put in about 24 acres in all. Sister had to leave us this morning. I walked out to night and brought the horse home. Still the days wear away, almost unconsciously, to me. I am trying to improve their precious moments diligently, for I know that their precious opportunities will soon be over.

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1870.

Mother and I went to day down to the Camp meeting below Jarvis. Was surprised to hear the Rev James Grey from the Wellington Square Circuit. Would have liked it much if I could have had the opportunity of asking about some of my friends there but could not. We came home directly after the afternoon service in order to do our milking &c. Our friend E. H. came just as we got home. The sessions to day have not been of the highest order in some respects but then the Lord was there.
