Wednesday, June 10, 1868.
  Clear and quite cool,
in fact one of the pleasantest
days that we have had 
so far this spring.
Ther. about 60[degrees] - 65[degrees] - 
60[degrees]. Rose at 5.40 A.M.
and studied about an
hour at the R's.
When I got back from
school studied about two
hours at the R's. Had my
Teal for dinner & found it
excellent. After dinner took
Bill & with Ruth took my
boat up to the pond. First
harnessed in the General
but he ran away & broke
the gate so we took Tiger
next and went up all
right. The boat leaked so
that we could not go out
in it. Came home & went
on top of the Catholic Steeple.
Then went up to 'the pond'
& took a row in Theo's boat.
Thursday, June 11, 1868.
  Cloudy all day.
Began to rain at 12 N.
& rained hard all the
rest of the day.
Ther. about 60[degrees] - 60[degrees] - 
50[degrees]. Rose only in time
for breakfast & father
had to exercise my
dogs for me. Went
into  Boston from school.
Went first to father's
office. Then went to Parkin's
eating house & had some
boiled fowl & green peas.
Then went to Dr. Stearns',
& had a tooth refilled, the
old filling had been done by
Dr. Roffins. Then went
down to the bird store &
bought a bird trap. Got
home at 6 P.M. Studied
at the R's. in the evening.
The trees have all shed their
blossoms. The young Robins of
the first brood can now fly as well
as their parents.
