Henderson's, he would be satisfied so I got him four half pound plugs. I paid up two or three small accounts around town as I felt mighty affluent when I stuffed $65.00 into my pocket after having been broke or nearly so for so long. When I finally got down to Auntys it was after twelve and Dad. was having dinner with them so I sat right down too. Frank was alone for dinner at home as Enah was down helping her father straighten up the house. Dad. and I came back to the farm right after dinner and bagged up a small grist and then caught 12 of Tim's ducks and put them in bags and took them up to Jack McBrides. They averaged 8 1/2 lbs apiece and Jack paid 16 cts a pound for them.

I got home just before dark and spent the evening reading a LIbrary book called "The Sport of Fate" which I borrowed from Aunty Alice. Cloudy & strong cold north west wind, getting coldr to-night. I noticed this morning before day lightthat i could see the reflection of the East End light wevery time it flashed quite plainly I never noticed it before from out here but it was very cloudy so I suppose that accounts for it I had Harry B out of bed looking at it and he seemed quite interested. Dad. had another letter from ~Mr Parks, very cheerful. He hopes the end of thre month to settle things
