Page 12

Friday September 11th 1903
I was very busy all forenoon, did churning, cake baking, &
made plum butter. Will went to the fair and I
went down home. Ott & Mother both some better. Dr
Dean has returned. Hattie went to the fair. Mollie
went home tonight. weather quite pleasant.
Will got a new horse of Earnest Danner today.
Saturday September 12th 1903
It looked quite like rain. We went down about
eleven oclock. Will went to the fair and I stopped
at home. The folks are about the same. I went
over soon after dinner to have Dr Dean treat my
throat. We came home before it was late. About
seven oclock there was a heavy rain.
Sunday September 13th 1903
I was busy about the house all forenoon
Will was at home all day. I went down
home in the afternoon. Mother and Ott are
both a little better. I came home in
time to do my evening work. Talked with
Mollie all the evening. weather pleasanter.
