Sunday July 10, 1921, We went to Church with the car in the morning although it rained a little in places. At 2.30 we went to Church again as Mr Lindsay preached to the Orange men “Render unto Ceasar the things that are Ceasars and to God the things that are Gods.” The greater part of the day was fine.

Monday July 11, 1921, Roy delivered mail, I went with him on the second part and arranged for help for the Engineer to finish the survey of the proposed pumping scheme near the Cell. In the evening Mr Gordon came with 15 boys containing 38 bushels of oats at $3 but $2 55. Mr L. Crawford and family were here in the evening. The roads were good and the weather was fine.
