News of the fete, made a lot of money with guessing competitions. Geoff and Joe presented the opener with a basket of peaches. Went to fete at Cople last week. Visit from Edith. Turkeys look very well, one died in the wet weather. Altering the soft water drains and cellar floor up. In autumn hope to have trees down that grow close to the dining room chimney. Have carted the wheat but have the oats to get. Busy bottling plums and making jam, nice lot of peaches this year. George has his glass eye. Joyce going to Uncle John’s. Has day girl back.
