Clear, No Frost. Took pants down to Lauder Shop to be altered. Riley Decker makes a grand kick about wood which he cut. Have decided to pay the balance balance rather than bother any more. Write again to Densay about Apples. Get ready to go timber after dinner was going to vol but he has hurt his leg again`. Roberts says he will go with us tomorrow and see about making some ties. Drove a while with P.M. Go bed, 10.30 PM
Charles Gramesly's Journal was written from 1878 to 1925. I am his Great-granddaughter and I post entries from the journal from 114 and 125 years ago. The journal is about everyday living in Charleston & Coles County Illinois. It is not just about the Gramesly family, it is about the community, the region and the issues on all levels that touch their lives. Many people are mentioned in this journal. Join me as I explore history written by my Great-grandfather . . .
