Arose early. After Breakfast R Gaskin leaves
for Kingston drives like Jehu hurrying to get to
the city by nine Oclock am. After dinner Grace &
Volty drive to the villiage and to Kingston ate dinner
at Quinn's, bought the bride a weding present, called on
R.G. at the Grand Union and again crossed to Garden Island
to the weding of Miss L. Sauve and Geo Morgan
which this morning was selebrated at the R Catholic Church, Marysville. Levi Banter here to dinner the
old man is foolish; has lost his mind.

No post. Wherd [sic] how it rains this morning
and our youngsters not home yet
from the weding. Maud wants

favorable. Maud sweeps and cleans
up the rooms, mops pantry and around
the coal stove. Voltie and Grace return from
the wedding at 2 p.m. bring Laura Davis
with them equiped for another dance over
the way at St Lawrence but D not having slept for 6
hours they stay home. F. W. here wish he'd stay home this time
made us call on his way to Rattrays. Lottie here for soap.
