the picnic on Saturday. Mr. High came home with me.
Wednesday 10th
Went to school. At night went to Mr. Kellogg's to stay all night. Sat up till eleven talking theology, politics, &c, with Mr. Kellogg.
Thursday 11th
Got up at five. After breakfast took a walk over the hill to the Lake Shore with the girls. Went to school at seven o'clock. After school, walked out to Kate Kavanaugh's tired enough when I got home(crossed out) there. We did everything we could think of chased the calves, cut straw for the horses, drove them to water, played with the dog, and about nine o'clock started in search of [indecipherable], got one with the aid of Peter and brought him home in triumph. "Thereby hangs a tale."
Friday 12th
Waked at half past four. Had got up and I took another nap. Kate walked half way to school with me, and met Charley Casey one of my scholars who came the rest of the way. Dismissed school tonight tired and almost discouraged.
Saturday 13th
Today is our picnic. Mr. Baker came about 8 ½ o'clock and soon after Mr. High & we started. There were four boat loads went. Had a very pleasant time. Went to Mrs. McBride's and got all the currants we wanted. There were about thirty-five people here, and when we came home we tied the boats together, and came across very sociably.
