Julia Brumfield Diaries

A good day. I went to Chatham from Lizzies.

Marvin and family come up there. Marvin & Jim Brumfield went to Chatham. Jim staid. I come home with them. Marvin & Carrie, Will and Julia Brumfield & Emily was here when I got home. I dont feel like here is home any more. I may be mean to feel that way but I cant help it. I feel that others think they are so smart that I am a mere nobody.

I was so glad that they come for me so as to trouble no one else. Saturday night June the 18th 1921

A good day. I am at Faber Jeffersons to night. Ben brought me to the road where I met Tim and Lizzie, Lonny, Alma. We come to Faber Jeffersons. Fond them all well. Have seen Mr & Mrs Oaks. I was glad to see them. I saw Mr George & Will Oaks at Gladys. Mr Bennett & Faber & Mr Oaks has gone to Jim Reynols tonight.

A good hot day. I was at Faber Jeffersons in Charloot County. The Bennett boys went to the red house to a base ball. Lizzie and Ola and I did not go. Alma went this evening. We started from the red house a bout 5 oclock. I got home a bout sundown.

Nellie & Jim was here when I got home. Josie had supper done and had milked.

Tonight Ben & family except the baby went to Strait Stone to see a picture show. The baby staid a wake until they got home. I am glad I am at home a gain. Next time I go I want to go fishing.

A good day. A little rain this morning. John & Edwin went from here this mornin. Ben & Jim worked on the floor all day. Ben went for cement late this evening. Josie went with him. The children staid at Marvins. I went to George Blairs this evening. They had a lot of company.

Georges folks had plenty of water mellons. They had a nice supper ready. I don't know how many eat. I had to come home.

A good day. Jim & Ben worked on their tobacco most of the day. They helped Marvin clear out his well this evening.

Jose ironed this morning. Marvin let Reese carrie me to White Falls. Paul & Roy went. They bathed in the river and had a good time. I caught 20 little fish. When I got home Lizzie was there. She had Ola's little boy with her. I am glad she come. I have slept most of the time to night but I could not help it. I had bin on my feet all day nearly.

Reese brought me home. Carrie & the children come with me. I thank them.
