We canned 3½ qts. tomatoes. Osie Neff came & him & papa went to Waterloo & got the deed written out by Archie Wiehl for $2.00, 4 acres of land for $225.00. Now Osie is going to build up a nice house, he won’t be far from the roadside. Uncle Fred & Aunt Mary came up this afternoon, he cut his corn. Rosalia & Bertille went out to Henry’s, helped her with the plums, Rosalia got her hair cut. Uncle Fred & Aunt Mary came back again this evening for the euchre, we all went but papa, he didn’t, he went as far as the store. Uncle Fred was the only one that got a prize, he had 8 points & got a sack of flour. Aunt Mary had 7, but didn’t get any. Rosalia had 5, Bertille had 4. When we came home it started lightining [sic] & thundering & we had a little shower.
