Oct. 1-7
Ma, Ellen and I go down in the waggon to Uncle Bob's on Monday to spend a week. Mammy Eliza and Dick
are also of the party but they return after dinner. Ma seems to enjoy herself. I make sister Mary several visits;
also call on Cousin Peggie Nelson but Uncle Bob's is Head Quarters. We return on Saturday. Quite a motly
crowd in the waggon vis the White Folks, Ann, Uncle Hatter, two turkeys, a goose and sundry bags, bottles,
jugs, bundles, etc. Find a letter for me at home from Dave. He has decided to make a doctor of himself which
profession I imagine will be much more to his taste than that of merchandizing ....
