Ther. 40° Cloudy & Rain. Wind. S.E.
Tuesday, Mar 9,^th 1897.

Still cloudy & drizzling rain most
of the day. I too the back seat out
of the "Surry". So as to make room for
anything we may wish to carry, such
as a trunk, or anything of that kind.

I wrote to Thos H Borden in N. York.
Willie came to the mill & called
here this afternoon. Edwd has been
at work trying to perfect the telephone
between our house and the "central"
next door. John Hardy (who lives near
Clarksville) buried his only son
today. "Roles C. Hardy" by name. he
was buried in Loudoun Park Cemetery
near our old home at "Athol"

Wednesday, Mar 10,^th 1897.

Foggy & cloudy early this morning
but towards noon the wind changed to
N.W. & blew quite hard a real March
wind. the sun shone out for a time.

Edwd took Hilles Robison to "Fairfield"
to trim trees for Edwd Peirce. I went
with them as far as Bulwar's & rode
back with Edwd Bentley. Went up to
the school house & requested Miss Dora
Mitchell to keep the children out of
Edwd Bentleys grass field as a play
ground. Wlaked down to Bulwar's
after lunch again. Edwd & Hilles returned
about 5.o'clock and I sent them
back to Bulwar's for the wood stove I
had bought of him for the spare room.
