We found England, Parr & Sidway had all been there with their wool. Frank took the team home and I stayed at the car as Neff asked me to be there to see that all the tickets were on all right. I stayed there till after dinner and didn't have any thing to do as there were only about a dozen brought wool so I slept and studied Latin all fore noon and went with out dinner. I went down to the station to get Ham Thompson's & Art Quanbury's freight bills about half past one. and when I got back I found Billy McNeilly there and he said the freight had been in and gone out again with out taking our car.
