Fine.
Brilliantly clear with fresh, cold
N.W. [northwest] wind. Calm at sunset with
almost frosty air & every indication
of a coming frost to-night.
  Took brisk walk to Pine Park & over
Ball's Hill just after breakfast. Spent
forenoon near cabins walking with
Gilbert [Robert Alexander Gilbert] & Pat. Put canoe in order,
weeded flower beds etc. Went to 
Farm at 2 P.M. Picked two baskets
of apples - Wealthy, Porter & Strawberry.
They are the finest ever raised there.
Had a feast of peaches, plums & grapes.
Started back at sunset having a 
delightful walk via Birch Field.
Birds exceedingly scarce. Saw no
migrants save 2 Black-polls. Yet I
heard Warblers passing over last night.
Few touches of brilliant color in Maple
swamps [?] [river?]

Brilliantly clear with light westerly winds.
Heavy killing frost last night, the river
meadows snow white with it at sunrise.
Many tender flowers & vegetables cut down
by it.
Crossed river at 7.30 to take 7.45 electric
for Concord & 8.21 train thence to West
Ridge where Miss Mary L. Ware met
me at station & drove me in fine buggy
drawn by beautiful little brown mare to
Rindge where I spent two hours in the
Public Library identifying & labeling a lot
of birds acquired since I first dealt with
this collection. At 1 P.M. Miss Ware drove
me to her home where I dined with her,
Dr. Hall of Cambridge & Mrs. & Miss Hall.
At 3 p.m. I was driven to Station where
I took train. Had to wait 20 min at
[?] & over an hour at Fitchburg.
It was nearly 7.30 & dark night
when I reached the cabin at Ball's Hill.
