Fannie went to Marshalltown early this morning one of her Aunts there died very suddenly Weather very pleasant. Thursday October 17 1907 It was a fine day. Our threshing was done this morning before eleven oclock. We had 360 bushel of oats. Ott went to Marshalltown for the day. I went down town with Will in the buggy. I stopped at hime to visit with Callie McCallister who was there for the day. It was 12 years today since Charlie died. Wrote to Lydia. Friday October 18 1907 I hurried through with my morning work.
