Lest We Forget March 19th and 20th, 1913

Long time away form blogging! Lots to catch up with...

Here's the page from Wednesday March 19, 1913 Thursday, March 20, 1913. The entry for the 19th is short and the end of the entry for the 20th is at the bottom so I combined them on this page.

Weather clear but cold 28 below. To cold to work. I stayed all day in stony Plain. A strong cold west wind blowing. I did nothing but lazed around the hotel all day.

Weather was fine much warmer than yesterday fine for running a spreader Left Stony plain at 8 o’clock for the north yards. I had the wind in my back all the way down arrived at N. G. [?] at 12 o’clock had dinner at the Hotel and finish all the work CBB at 2 o’clock Then I went in to Edmonton and met Jim Dickson had a fun game of pool with him.

[This portion is continued from the next page of the 20th. Clem ran out of room!!]
Mch 20
I had supper with him and about 11 o’clock he went over to strachoma [?]


Jim Dickson was one of Clem's brothers. He was about 6 years older having been born in 1882. He was married to Anna Louisa Ashton, but I have no further information about his family.
