Cloudy and chilly. Had everything packed up last night to be ready to move. Expected the expressman Albert Wade at about 1/2 past 7 o’clock, but he didn’t come. Waited for him to 1/2 past 10 o’clock then ordered Dewey, who followed the call quick. Got trough moving at 15 min. past one. I helped to unpack and layed the straw matting in the bedroom, set up the bed and did other little jobbs, to straiten things up. Martha visited Mrs. Currecie in the morning and then went up here first, to await the team. Mr. Warnack was with us in the evening. Talked and read the paper. Everything got up safe. I went to the shop and worked for about one hour. Ate diner at 1/2 past 6 o’clock P.M. containing Liver & Bacon with Murphys.
