Papa went out in the woods this morning to get some poles. Today Slyvester [sic – Sylvester] Miller & Hilda Bertram are getting married. Leona went to church to see it. Her sister & brother where the attendants. We got the report this morning that Henry S. Braun died last night at 7 o clock & will be buried Thurs. morn. We heard he had heart failure & indigestion trouble & then again we heard, he went to get a drink of water by the well & fell over dead. Clarence Wittenauer was here, he wants 3½¢ to haul wheat from Pabst’s to our place & takes 3 to Red Bud & 4 to New Athens & 5 to Freeburg. So Papa got Eichenseer’s to haul it, they will do it for 3¢. Bertille was by Mrs. Rennecker about a half hr. this evening.
