Cloudy but warm weather. I finished lettering in the library & took in two little jobs binding, August, the Jew, was here and brought us a bundle and a letter from Ludlow. Mama sent us a piece of pork and some money for Auntie. Ida was down town and bought a few things, and later Martha was in the shop. I bought an yeast cake candy and the evening paper & we went home together. The boy was feeling a little better and so, we can help for a little better rest to night. I did send out a few bills and collected 10 cts, a big pile of money. We played two games of domino. Auntie won one, and that made her feel as good as a bed bug. Got a doz. of beer for which Auntie paid. I did not speak of our plants lately but will say that they are now doing fine. We will raise tomato and pansy plants this winter, to sell them coming spring.
