go down town. I made a spider cake + we have just had it for our supper. with a bowl of black berries. Pa wont eat berries but some times he likes to spoon out the juice from the black berries. or from berry pie. I have got a bowl of black berries I mean to carry down to Alices tomorrow. she was good to send me up some clam chowder. she was suffering with that sinos trouble again when I was down there the last time. I wonder whats the cause of it + what the remidy. she did not have a particle of it while she was up to Boys. I guess it had something to do with the nerves. Pirey had a job of washing windows up to the Clapp school house. I guess its pretty hard scratching for them. Myrtie said Mrs Beleher didnt want them to move out. so you see they cant pay the rent. Sue always said the boarders payed their rent. I think they have to have a big house in order to take boarders. I dont know how they will manage. I am sure. Pirey has no luck in finding work he has no real trade. good natured but nothing smart. his disposition is one to get along with her bossy one Horace said if you were to search the world over she couldnt found a better boy to get along with he took care of him to the last + thats right.
