It began raining last night at 6 pm
and rained all night. barrel and
can full of water this morning. Got Maud
out early to go to market. Wells said
he would only put the bovines in the
barn and milk when he returned from
the dock! instead! he carried the pails
to the stable, milked all the cows,
seperated the milk, ate breakfast, caught
the horse and I a hustling around
all the time to get them started
at last! they get under way only
to get as far as the hill. When behold
the boat was just starting out front
the dock and so Sr turned about
and sent Maud with the butter
all the way to Marysville to go to
Kingston. And Oh such a day!
Wind! Ye howling huricanes
and gales! blowing all day
with a clear sky after 8 am
