Sunday 6 September 96
A cloudy squally looking day. Wind blowing
fresh from South West and increasing
to nearly a gale towards night. Reid
here all a.m. Wallace N made a call
and they all talk fish talk. V goes over
to the other orchard. Reid goes with him.
Maude and I walk down through
the orchard as far as the old maple.
The trees are binding under their load
of apples this year. Return to the house
and get dinner ready just as V comes back
from the old orchard. After dinner
Reid comes back and stays till
bed time. Henry H brings Grace from
at dark. Very glad she came.
