Thursday September 11 A very unpleasant day. After heavy thunder showers during night, & rain continuing to fall by spells most of day, of course I enjoyed it having Millie for company, in A.M. but she left me first of P.M. between the showers, making it seem lonely. Still dark & showery in eve. Ellery the whole of it at home first for long time, has to work most of time now. September 12 Pleasant & not very cool, tho' quite windy. I went in to Mrs H_'s of errand & finding I could help her little "basteing" & she doing some stitching for me, stopped couple hours, Went to depot to bid Millie W_ "good bye", she starting for McGregor on P.M. train, Estelle in few minutes after I came home. Then I was over to work an hour or so with Mrs Howe.
