SEPTEMBER, SATURDAY 3^d 1887.

Charley & Willie were
both at home most of the
day. Sally Edwards Wright
was here for advice & medicine.
Edward seems quite
unwell again, threatened
with some slow fever. I
am afraid. Afternoon
Ernest came bringing with
him little Llewellen Rust
after early tea Charley
took Ernest in the "Road
cart driving "Fritz" & went
to Washington Bowie's. &
purchased a brown mare
said to be 7 years old; she
seems to be a very nice animal
and unless something
"shews out" after a while
I believe she is cheap enough
at the price $125.0/00.
Ernest left for Elton about
10.o'clk: Bro Chas: & Miss Nannie
Pancoast came after tea. Alice
& Fannie Pierce came to spend
the night with Dora.

{After supper I went over to Mary Robert's having been sent for again.}

came soon after breakfast
from Rachael Gilpin's. Bro R.
called on way to Meeting. Uriah
also went to meeting. Charley
& Willie went to "Elton" in
the "road cart" driving the
new brown mare. Edward
seems quite "poorly" & I am
anxious about him.
Janie Smith called for some
Quinine. Uriah went up
to Rachael Gilpin's to spend
the night. Nelly came and
took tea with us. & I drove
her home after the moon
was up. Danl Youngham
was here to see Charley

Kirk in the afternoon.
