Got up early this morning, and a fine morning and still better day it was. I had to leave Martha at 1/4 past 8 o’clock to come back here in good season. Martha was crying and I had to hustle away from her, as would have joined her crying myself. I arrived here at a1/4 of 11 o’clock after an easy drive. There was not a hair well on my horse. Took in two more little jobs in binding and must work a few days in library. Looked around for a farm hand for papa without success.
