A good day. Very warm
for December. The men
hauled some stalks and
cut some feed for
Mr. Booker.
The children went to
school for the last time
this year. This evening
Henry went to Mt. Airy
and played ball and
got beat. Come home so
mad that he cried.
Then he went to Strait
Stone to meeting at
the church. He has not
got back yet I don't think.
Mr. Mayhew and some
of the children come
tonight to play games.
They seam to enjoy
them. I am glad
for them to come.
Ben and his children
like to play.

They may have had a hand operated cutter for chopping the stalks into shorter lengths which would have made them easier to feed in a trough although this is speculation on my part.
