[from the diary of Anne Madison Willis Ambler]
Pa is having his Fall apples gathered-
Some of them are the finest I ever had.
Here again I think of you, how you
would enjoy them--Wouldnt I love to see
you sitting right under them & eating an
apple. Emma is very busy attending
to putting them away. Pa says that she
may sell as many as she can & have the
money - (i.e. what are not used)
Rod to Rippon in the carriage yesterday & took
Tom & Daisy to have their feet measured--
- Paid 1 50 for Ds shoes 4 75 for mine
I engaged to make them for that
pd 8$ for shoes for Pa.
