Oct. 19-25
Hear Mr. Meade....Hear of the death of cousin Albert Holladay, which took place last night (18th).Have some charming weather this week. The woods are like a piece of tapestry ....As Woods says, "The look of nature geteth short of leaves." In a few weeks not a vissage will remain of summer and then "stern winter comes apace with bellowing storms and frosty face." Make the Mexican pickles. Jack [one of her dogs] is suspected of sheep killing. I'm much troubled about it. Believe it all comes from being so friendly with Old Pam who is no novice in the art of killing and eating a poor innocent sheep. Miss Bella Nelson and Dr. Gardner were united in the holy state of matrimony on the 22nd at Clover Fields. Miss Vallant comes up on Friday with brother Jim to spend a day or so.
