Tuesday, September 1, and Wednesday, September 2, 1868

Tuesday, September 1, 1868
A cloudy, dull day, but it did not rain any and it looks quite pleasant to night. Melia has kept on her bed all day to day, but she says she feels better to night.
Nellie Stephens was over this afternoon a little while.
Maria and Clara went down town this afternoon to get the mail and Clara some shoes. Clara got some shoes. Gave 20 shillings. They got a letter from James. The thrashers have come to night.
We shall thrash to morrow.

Wednesday, September 2, 1868
A very pleasant day to day. We had a very busy day! To day we got through thrashing at noon. Had 45 bushels of wheat and 92 bushels of oats.
Melia is some better to day. She was able to come down stairs.
I feel pretty tierd to night. We washed to day besides doing our iorning and lots of baking and putting up bedsteads for the hop pickers.
Ruth is drying apples to take home.

Maria does not feel very well to night, she says.
