Notebook
In reading my father’s
diary, written in the 1920’5,
I’ve been reminded of living
patterns in bygone days.
Most of his entries were
’one-liners’, simply,
“worked so and so all day.”
But, occasionally he added
an interesting item such as
annual trips to North East,
Md., to buy fish on Ascension
Day, a trip in the Fall to a
farm in the Strasburg area
to buy watermelons or a trip
to Bowers Beach and a
reported catch of 54 bass.
He tells of buying his first
radio, of a cow bloating and
dying and of butchering a pig
weighing 478 pounds. In
season, he helped his three
neighbors to thresh, dug out
briars, and witnessed a
relative’s will.
However, there was one
day in May of 1928 that rated
a full five lines in his diary.
On that particular day he
watered his tobacco plants,

worked around the barn and
drove the two-horse wagon
to the mill. Then about 2; 30
a.m. he was awakened by an
alarm ringing on the
headboard of his bed.
Someone had gone into our
chicken house! He pulled on
his overalls, grabbed the
shotgun and hurried quietly
out into the garden behind
the hen house.
In the ensuing battle, he
was fired at five times and
returned three shots. They
got away. The next day
burlap bags were found on a
back cinder road near our
barn which contained red
feathers, white feathers and
black feathers. The State
Police came and dug bullets
out of the buildings.
Times haven’t changed
that much-they had petty
thieves than, too. I’m simply
grateful that he didn’t get
himself killed on that awful
night.
