I put another lot of corn to dry in the
forenoon and got the dinner. I went down
home and on to town in the afternoon. Ott &
Mother are both better. Mollie went hone
tonight. I read all evening. weather pleasanter.
It was 19 years today we last looked at Rob.
Saturday September 19th 1903
Will went to the pasture this morning and sold
four head of cattle that brought $133.33. In the
afternoon he finished seeding. I had Warren Smith
help me wash and in the afternoon I ironed all
the things. In the evening put them all away.
Sunday September 20th 1903
We took an early start and went down to
John McCallister's called at Stevens on the
way. We had such a good visit with the folks
being their done. We came around home
past Hills. There are great changes in the
place. Home in time to do evening chores.
Mollie came back tonight. a beautiful day.
