Fri Oct 12 Nice clear warm and still. Will and
Johny finished the barley stubble piece one load
and hauled the hay on the 6 acre piece 2 loads.
I helped Frank clean up some oats that
Montgomerys machine ought to have cleaned
and this afternoon I cleaned up the grainery.

Sat Oct 13 Quite nice. Johny raked
and shocked the piece north of the house all but one
row of shocks. I went to Denver to see if I could
get some money from the O E Miller Co on acct [account]
of their not curing me but Miller plead
poverty or that he couldnt get any money
so I had to come home without it and I am
afraid that my chances are pretty slim for
getting it.

Sun Oct 14 Good day. Mother and
I went up to Franks to see our new grand-
son. We found him all right [alright] and Mrs Randall
says he looks like me. The rest were pretty
well only Mary looks pretty thin. Johny started
home but met his sisters on the road so
didnt go all of the way.

Mon Oct 15 Clear and very nice. We
got one load of hay hauled and then Mr Marsh
came and he and Johny finished the haying
for this year by clearing the piece above the
house got 4 loads from it though one was
small. I fixed a place to set up the corn in
the piece north of the barn.
