over to mister Watsons and asked him if he dident want to see father
and he sed he wood and i went home and told father mister Watson
wanted him to come over jest as quick as he cood and father went over.
i knew father woodent ever think of it agen. father and mister Watson
Beanys father set and talked about what they usted to do and father sed
do you remember Wats that time you and Bill Yung and Brad Purinton
and Jack Fog went down to, and then he saw me and Beany lissening

Beany went over to old Si Smiths for some goozberies but i have got to

whether it was brite and fair sence i wrote my last diry or not, but

wrote my last diry. Beanys father is a poliseman now and Beany feels

have come back and they has been lots of fites. Scotty Briggam licked
2 stewdcats in one day. one day me and Pewt and Beany was standing
in frunt of the libary and 2 stewdcats went in and Pewt threw a peace of
dry mud and it hit the stewdcat rite in the neck and bust and went down
his coller and he see us laffin and he walked rite out to where we was
standing and he sed sorter sisy like whitch of you boys throwd that, and
Pewt sed jest like him, if you are so smart you had better find out, and
he grabed Pewt and throwd him rite in the guter and roled him round in
the mud and hit him 3 good bats in the ear. me and Beany run and Pewt

went down but mother and aunt Sarah and the baby and Franky and
Georgie and Annie who was all two little except mother and aunt Sarah
who had to stop and take care of them. the band played splendid and
Fatty Walker jest pounded the base drum as hard as he cood. most of
the fellers run round and played tag and hollered but i set still. i cant
see how fellers can run round and holler when a band plays. they tried
to pull me out of my seet but i giv Beany a good punch. when we came
home mother asked if i had behaived and father sed i set there jest like
a old potato. he sed i dident know much ennytime but when i herd
music i dident know ennything.
