A very fine morning. V rose early
hustling around getting ready to go to
dock for the potatoes he bought last
Thursday by the Wolfe Island. He bought one
bag for which he paid 6 dollars
big bag of potatoes. Tis an awful price to
pay for a bag of potatoes. Voltie got rheumatism
in left arm pains terribly. Cultivated for
corn, not much washing done to day nor
any thing else. Some out door choring old
Ben down again by the consession.
Had to move the old staging to get old Ben
up. Samy helped V get him on his feet again.
Looks like rain. Emma brought in the
clothes from the line.
