James Roger diary entry
17th (Thursday)
Fair and cool. David assisting at Parsonage drawing rocks for cellar wall and went for grain at 4 pm. W. Hardy & him put in the clover grass into brooder house. I finished clearing the shingles from round the Hall. Mrs. Lake buried today. Her body was brought from County Poor Farm. A poor ending for such a sweet old lady. I wrote to Jim at Oakdale last night and to Hamish today. Got pc from Roslin last night and a box of heather today.

William Jurian Kaula diary
Cartwright will return to Paris in a few days and settle down for the winter. I wish to remain through October and am doing much better work than before. I think that I work much better at Crécy and since Hazard has gone. He was a great help at the early part of the summer but as he grew discontented I felt the influence also. Here at Crécy I have grown more ambitious and energetic and accomplish much more and consequently enjoy life all the more.
