Sister Ida and Aunt [Eunice?  Emma?] were there.  It was late when we got supper over and the work done.  Sunday September 18 1910  It was a very warm morning.  Lizzie and I went to church in the buggy.  After getting dinner I did some work while Will visited with Lizzie at 4.30  Hattie & Ida came. and at 5.30 John came for supper.  He went right back but the girls staid till 8.12.  After they had gone Lizzie and I washed the dishes.  It turned cooler at dark.  It was late before we went to bed.
