Lunn,
Nov. 21
We did not get up so very
early and took some time with
our breakfast. After breakfast
Buckley held an auction and
sold off of our late, the dead Cluing-
man's (Sherlock Holmes) things: I bid
in his blue coat for my boy,
B. left me soon after and then
I took lunch and a boy
and went up on the Sundown
Spur and did a lot of collecting.
Found Nelmin's heartache?
and several other good ferns.
Did not get back until
after lunch time and so I
finished up the rice and
chicken left over from break-
fast. I put my plants in
frass and had a big lot
of them.
It has been rather rainy
and windy and I worked
with my clever stuff.
We had an early dinner.
I tried to write up my note
by candle light but never
got it up and went to bed.
