Saturday Aug. 7 Went to market with Linn this morning & had a little ride with her in her Aunt Lizzies carriage & laid on the bed with her all afternoon. After supper Allie, Linn, & I went to Mr Kislers brought home Mammas watch, (the crystal was broken & he had to fix it) then we went down town again & got some Soda Water & candy. Monday Aug. 9th 75. Papa & Mamma started this morning for a little trip around Iowa. They will be gone about 2 weeks I think. They left everything in such a muss that it took May & I almost all the morning to pick things up. After dinner we took a nap. At 3 PM May took Mrs Hervey & Linn to see a sick lady. Linn
