so i felt prety good and crep back to bed.
Sept. 29. Brite and fair. At school today Scotty Briggam jumped over the
fence today to get the football and fell on his arm and broke it, and
then he went home and came back before school was out with some shingles
tied on his arm. Scotty has got some spunk, but i gess Tady Finton can
lick him now. Old Francis said 2 axidents in 2 days was too mutch and we
mustent play football enny more. so at recess we go behind the school
house and have fites. Gim Miller and Ben Rundlet had a good fite, and
tomorrow Plug Atherton and Diddly Colket are going to have a fite it is
most as much fun to see fites as to play football.
Sept. 30. Brite and fair. we cant have enny more fites. at recess today
Plug and Diddly had the best fite i ever saw. they fit all recess and
none of us heard the bell and Plug had Diddly down and we were all
hollering, paist him Plug and hit him Diddly when old Francis came round
the corner and grabed Plug and Diddly. i tell you we all went into
school lively and old Francis made Plug and Diddly stand on the platform
all the rest of the day with their arms round each others necks and we
dident have enny recess in the afternoon. it is pretty tuf. we cant play
one old cat becaus old Polly Smith makes a fuss when the ball goes over
her fence and we cant play football becaus Scotty broke his arm and
Whack got stunted, and we cant fite becaus it is rong to fite. we might
jest as well be girls and roll hoop.
