Next Entry from Clem Dickson

What follows is the entry Clem made on the “Friday” page. But as explained in the earlier post, he made a mix up in which day was which. Who could blame him….the pages were probably frozen together at the time! Good thing they thawed out over the past 100 years!

At any rate, this entry is dated January 18th, 1913. Please remember that this is a direct transcription, warts and all!

We stayed in car alle (sic) day waiting for to snow. Cullerne three trains ran over me and the fourth picked me up at 1045 AM.
Steve and I wished that all the trains would have run over him as we wanted to be in Stony Plain foe (?) over sunday.

Arrived at Wabamum at 1245 AM. Steve and I went to Smith for dinner. Cullerne walked in from Carval to here. Arrived at 520 PM. Steve and I did a little in the afternoon he wired rail change and I made up the reports. Cullerne went to Edson on #1 1222 PM.

Some of these men must be the “Steve” or the “Cullerne” referenced in the diary

(I finally figured out how to hi-lite the entries in bold italics to distinguish it from my own rambling!)
