i am glad of it. i
liked Mister Fernald but i hated old Robinson. i gess he wont get
invited here again. this morning at brekfast he prayed again until the
brekfast was most cold and he prayed a good deal about takin the name of
the lord in vane and i cood see that mother looked mad but she dident
say ennything. bimeby he begun to talk to mother about father having a
unfortunate temper, and said his langage was shocking, and Cele she up
and said, i gess my father is as good as you are and Keene stuck out her
tung and mother sent them away from the table, and then old Robinson he
said i am afrade your children are not well brought up, and mother
looked rite at him a minit and then she said, i shood feel very badly if
my children shood xcept hospitality from another person and crittisise
that person to his face, at all events i cannot submit to have my
husband or my children crittisized, and Mister Robinson he dident say
ennymore you bet. after brekfast they went away, and Mister Fernald he
shook hands with us all and he asked mother to let Cele and Keene come
down to shake hands and she did. after they had went mother she gave us
a peace of mince pie apeace and we all hoorayed for mother. none of us
went to church today.
