Monday 24 Feb 1902

Bob Reid slept here last night. He and Voltie hopped out of bed this morning at 1/2 past 2 O'clock am and hastily swallowing a cold lunch hitched old Jess before the dog cart and drove to North shore to rim his pike nets - 4 of them, and returned at 7 pm. I didn't get up till 1/2 past 5 am. The boys returned in time for breakfast. The ground is very soft after the rain so wet that planting will have to wait till pm, in mean time V & Bob break the black colt to drive

Very Interesting

Monday 24 1902 A Cloudy thick morning and rains in pm. Voltie and his father fill the ice house. Jim O'brien getting out ice too, for himself. Young Brigeland here to dinner. A man from Kingston here this pm and bought our fowl they came to $4,55. V gave me the money and I gave him two dollars back to buy groceries
