Abstract

"Monday 16 During the night the wind blew and the rain fell but this morning all is right again. After choreing around the barn I hitched up the oxen and went to hauling rocks for the fence which business I followed all day and sure it is that I have done nicer work than that and have seen things that afforded more fun than smashing my fingers with rocks and getting sand in my eyes and then driving oxen is such fun. Tuesday 17 Again I have oxen rocks and sand to contend with as I am still at the same business and my hands are becoming sore from the frequent contacts with solid substances. At three o'clock I turned out the oxen, got a horse and went back and laid up fence till night then hunted up the cows, drove them home, helped milk and do the chores then went to bed. But I forgot I also wrote a letter to Mary in the evening. Wednesday 18 Spent the day building fence and of course enjoyed myself, sticking slivers in my hands and sand in my eyes. Altogether the day has been quite pleasant. In the evening wrote three letters which I hope will afford some fun after awhile."
