that way to see us. She & Mrs. Buck have been visiting there to-day. She got a card from Hettie Horning asking when we are going. We will likely reach there as soon as the answer to her card will. Ella wanted us to come down this week some ev'g. She was sorry we would be away.
Tues. 7th Sarah & I have been getting ready to-day to go to Copeton. O. Triller & Miss Harvey came this afternoon while E.M. & Maria were extracting honey. Emily was sick and they could not stay to the prayer meeting & committee meeting appointed to see about a garden party at Mr. Hickson's. Jennie Wild came here after driving Mandy & Mrs. Wild down to meeting. M. L. went down with Emily. Katie Dorland was coming down the lane when our dog (Rover) ran up at her and would have bitten her but she called for me and I ran up and stopped him. We had a nice time.
