Sept. 17th 1899. The Harvest thanksgiving is at the church today. It is to be at the chapel on the 26th. Mr. Basden has given up his service at the chapel Sunday morning and Mr. Clamp didn’t want to take it, so its given up altogether. Whatever made you think I should make a good landlady. I’m glad I’m not obliged to have any lodgers for work and I don’t agree at all in our days. Mr. H. Hunt is gone to the seaside. Mr. Eagling told H. Nunn they could work comfortably now he is not there. I think they have got the roof on. A good thing uncle has plenty of work. I suppose you will be asking for more money when the strike is over. It was in the paper that Uncle Charles (Kerridge) had got another hotel to build in Southwold. We shall be going blackberring.
