Very warm all day. Mr. Higley came on the 10 a.m. and went on the 2 to Lacona, don't think he found Sidney as a call over the phone this evening from Lacona asking if Sidney had reached home yet came, must of been him, he wished to see him very much. I forwarded his card on the 7 a.m. Mr. Higley intends to go from here to Albany. I expected a letter yesterday and today from Sidney but none came. I am worried.

Cool cloudy, sprinkled 2 or 3 times but has not rained hard. Mora worked at Weatherups 8 hours. Maud cried all night with the pain in her toe, has been quite bad all day but I think it is much better tonight. Memphis went to mill, rec'd a letter from Sidney, he mailed it at Richland on his way to Lacona. Mora mailed one to him seven p.m.
