Friday, September 25, 1868


Well, this has been an exceedingly dull day, and it has rained some of the time, but not bad enough to keep us from picking hops. John came up with a horse and buggy for Ella and I about 9 o’clock this morning. We finished picking 5 o’clock this afternoon. Ella and I picked 9 bushels to day, making in all 65 bushels apiece each at 5 cents a bushel. Made $3.25. Mr. Chappel paid them all, and then we had our supper and Rob took the horse and buggy and took Ella and I home.
