William Jurian Kaula diary
Crécy was very lively last evening with a fête. It is the largest that I have seen in this neighborhood and as usual an imitation of the same in Paris only on a small scale. This one will last three days. It is no different from the fêtes that I have mentioned before - it is a fair and a lot of amusement for the inhabitants. There are a multitude of house wagons outside the town and hordes of beings that resemble Gypsies more than anything else.

James Roger diary entry - Forest Fires & Northern Lights
30th (Wednesday)
Frosty morning. Fine sunny day wind S. to E. David ploughing the James Davis field. I fixed the Marshall lot. Mrs. Fletcher died last night and for sanitary reasons was put in the town tomb this morning and buried in afternoon. There was a good turnout of people at the Baptist minister reception. This month has closed with a record heat and drought. Forest fires have been prevalent all over the country. There was no rain with exception of a slight shower from 26th August until early morning of 29th Sept. Last night was a very fine display of the northern lights and indications tonight are for rain soon.
Great pictures of Anne!!!!
