Friday September 24th 1909 I called up this morning an Hattie answered the phone they got home last night. Soon as we had dinner Will hitched and we drove down. I stopped at Fannies awhile before going up home. Went on to town from there to get things needed and Will drove home with me. It was late when my work was done. Saturday September 25th 1909 Will took me down town this morning. We have got the last of the light fixtures and I paid the bill today. He took me over to Mrs Brainards to a meeting of The Elder Daughters In the election I was chosen Recording secretary I dont know how I will get through with the duties. I called at Mrs Smiths and Mrs A.E [Smithers?]. besides stopping at John [Striers?] to see the new boy [boley?]. I got home at 5.39. Got supper and did some extra work for tomorrow. a beautiful day. Sunday September 26th 1909 I got my work done in the morning in time to write a short letter to Laura mason before going to church. This is the last Sunday Dr Clark will preach. his sermon was fine. I got our dinners and wrote some in afternoon John & Hattie came out to supper and to spend the evening. It was a beautiful day. We had such a good visit with the folks they told all about their trip
