Concord
Ther [ Thermometer] Thursday, Sept. 3, 1914 [September 3, 1914]  Wea [Weather]
Fine
Clear & vary warm but with a 
soft, refreshing westerly breeze that
tempered the heat most agreeably.
  I spent most of forenoon with
Manson of Carlisle arranging for the
digging of a well and with
Burbank planning for the piping
of his & my houses for town water
which has just been brought into
them.  At 11 I strolled down
through Birch field where I met
Henry who had been practising
golf shots in Bensen's pasture
and was on his way back. Heard
Warblers in several places & 
saw a few but none of any
special interest.
  In P.M we motored through
Nine Acre Corner almost to Sudbury
& back via Baker's Bridge & then
Walden road.  Stopped at Fairyland
& walked around pond.
Victrola music this evening.

Ther [Thermometer] Friday, Sept. 4, 1914 [September 4, 1914] Wea [Weather]
Heavy nocturnal migration Fine
  Clear & cool with light N.W. [northwest] wind.
  Spent much of forenoon out of doors
rambling about the Farm & to Birch Field.
Heard Warblers chirping almost everywhere
but saw only a very few, among
them a Redstart. They seemed to be
widely scattered & no more than two
or three together anywhere. Henry
motored to Concord to play golf
with Charley Carter whom he beat.
  He & I took motor ride in
late afternoon, leaving the house
at 4.30 & getting back at 6.
We went first to Duren's & beyond,
next through Carlisle Village &
then to Concord where Henry 
made a small purchase & I
had a talk with Jim Melvin.
  Going out into our dooryard at 10. P.M
I heard Warblers chirping & Thrushes
calling almost ceaselessly as they sped
southward through the cool, calm air
lighted on their way by a full moon
shining in a cloudless sky.
