Glossary: There are items in the book for which the meaning is not clear or well known. We offer this help.
  1. Midlins - as in middlings, where there are 3 grades of flour and middlings are grade 2. (Doug Smith)
  2. Vail - leg of veal (see image 04) (Randy Saylor)
  3. Gammon – a cut of bacon – (Doug Smith from Wikipedia)
  4. Dr - This means Debit. (Thanks to Linda Corupe for this.)
  5. Cr - means Credit.
  6. Colter - The fore iron of a plow, with a sharp edge, that cuts the earth or sod. (Doug Smith)
  7. Swivel Tree - Device that allows a team separately harnessed to pull a plough. (Doug Smith)
  8. Clevis - A straight clevis looks like the letter C, with holes at each end; when you insert the clevis pin, you create a D. with the clevis able to rotate about the axis of the pin. (Wikipedia)
  9. Wedge [see: weg, wegge] - a metal pointed wedge
  10. Rivet [see ribbet] - steel pin hammered on both sides
  11. Linsey Woolsey [Lancy Woosy, image 4] was the everyday tough cloth made of a linen and wool thread spun together and woven by the lady or daughter of the house into yard goods. It was reputedly very "scratchy and itchy" especially when newly sewn into clothes but wore like iron. (Lorene Sinclair)
Plough parts – As a blacksmith, James Noxon mentions a number of parts of the plough that he repairs or makes.

December 16 one of the most violent Storms of snow in that we have had for some years. the winter so far has been very Severe It commenced on the 14 of novm with a rain which froze to an ice about an inch in thickness Stock of every description have been confined
to the yard since that time most part of  time since the ? has been good, The mills in the onset were scant of water, but about a week ago we hath a thaw with rain which produced quite a freshet, It froze immeddeatly after and very hard attended with a light mist of rain making a covering of ice of some ½ inch or so It commenced snowing yesterday from the NE veering round to the S, thence to the NW from which quarter we have had a terrible Stom of wind and Snow, the past fall has upon the whole be favourable for secering the crops alltho many a large field of potatos are still out and ? the past 3 weeks a good deal of corn has been taken in, generall very healthy & weddings in abundance this neighbourhood having its full share, among them is Js Drewry 3 of L Roblins family General Elections comences to morrow morning Stevenson & Conger are the Dandidates, all the good effect I immagin that it will have from it so that the ? in Conseqence will likely be broke, I think that I shall pay but little attention to the matter neither party have ever benefitted Canada, really speaking we are an ignorent hard working oppressd people, ruind in private habits & public opinion by are over ? attachment ot Established nnotions & foolish policies imported from the old contries and however such ? ? ? ? may be there, they are certainly ? to this yong & thirsty  ? ? country

February 20  A perion of near five years has elapsed since I have undertaken to commit to writing the common occurances that daily take place   It is a practice that I much admire. I have undertaken it some two other times before and continued it generally through the winter very satisfactorally but when long day short nights warm weather & hard labour take place it gradually becomes abandoned and the probability is that even this attempt will in the same manner fail   there are many occasions why I should wish to persue a course of this description   It might be of great importance as a matter of chronology   Excellent as a book of reference in regard to circumstances & events as connected with my own business   allso respecting the birth marrages and Death of other persons? and lastly to strengthen the memory and a method of order and discipline in all my transactions but a grand difficulty occurs   I have no proper example to be governed by to undertake to put down a persons experience would seem weak indeed or even what you should think would be but little better   The state of the weather with the most imputad? publick and private transaction seems to be all that is necessary   That every day should be mentioned would seem unnecessary.   I shall however make a Juble? attempt in some shape or manner
The past winter has been one unparallelld for moderation   the weather very mild with most excellent sleighing   the Snow commenced falling on the 28 of Novm 45/- and since there has been uninterupted travelling of the first quality   this day is pleasant   the wind E N E   we were at a small party at David Howell Ameliasburg ___  strong talks of wars   the correspondence between her Majestys envoy and the American Minister at Washington are rather inflamitary   how things will terminat none can tell
20th  tremendous storm of snow from E N E   very unwell myself   Mrs ferguson detained by the storm  – –
21  the snow has fallen about 3 feet   wind shifted to W with squalls of snow   myself confined to the house  Jane Rightranger? confined with a daughter son   the roads allmost unpassable  heavy drifts
22  Blow, with squalls of snow   the roads impassable   W
23 Breaking the roads   Drifting severely with squalls of snow   neighbours hunting wolves   heard of John Trumpours death
24 myself confined to the house   the roads allmost impassable   H Henderson calld this evening on his way to Sheffields to get married (good luck to him)   W
25 May 11 at evening   our winter broke about the middle of March tho they traveled the ice to Bellville as late as the 22   the weather remaind quite clear & warm with little as we can during the month   april set in fine with most beautiful weather   people generally commenced plowing about the forth? and continued so without the least interruption until the 28 I believe when we had rain   It was very dry   Roblin & Saylor? hubb? stopd grinding   May set in most flourishing   the trees & grass showed evident signs of vegitation   the ground became again quite dry   on the 9th we had a rain storm from the East N E which has started the Mills again   Cool after the rain   the plum trees are out of blossoms and the woods are now green. Abram Burdett died yesterday   buried tomorrow at 1 oclock at the village   The boats did not come up till about the 15 or 20 april   the Prince of Wales & the Beaver   the Prince Edward is expected in a day or two   Parliament Commenced the 20 March and is still sitting   S Swan of Picton died suddenly yesterday morning   Townsend Garratt of Hillier was killed by his horses running over him the last of April    Abrim Reachs? wife died about the same time   the weather is cool tonight   I am afraid of God

1848 April 1 yesterday was very warm   rain in PM with wind from S   today cool   wind west inclined to freeze   we have little or no sap weather   made about 30 lbs   it has been a very mild wimter   the ice at Bedfords has not been crossd with a double team   the only period of good Sleighing was about the middle of January during our Election   the oldest inhabitants have never known so warm a winter   the ice was crossd at North port about the middle of March for the last time with one horse only   times are very hard   great complaint for want of money   wheat 4/- peas 2/3 Rye 2/9 but the trouble is that there is none to sell   the frost is in the ground sufficient to prevent us from building firm?   the fields are a perfect mire  there is a great deal of work to  do and I feel myself getting old   my health is only midling tho better than last year   I am now going in my 40th year and I have every reason to believe that my best days are done   I daily feel the necessity of turning my attention more to the prospect of death and the realities of a future State   Janisett? healths has been and is poor   what shadows we are what shadows we persue and we must evidently soon vanish away
April 9th Sunday,   the most brilliant day yet   the roads are getting dry but times are rather lonesome   none stirring out   yesterday was the quarterly examination of our school   a large attendance of visitors   Mr Rogers  Hazlett & etc?   we have not commenced plowing yet,   the steamer P Wales passd up the bay last Thursday the 6th    it appears a general time of health   the yong are full of life & activity & seem to enjoy themselves & the old are becoming strangers and pilgrims here a generation unknown are rising up around us, strange faces are making their appearance every day and neither should we complain for our places must be filld  
The latest news was that the Republic of Feanan? <was completed> (Amen) had been acknowledged by several other powers
May 12  Cool after a N E rain   the weather looks hazy and indicates more wet   I have just been out doors the first in near 2 weeks   only able to sit up   previous to this rain the weather has been very dry   all April was cool & dry   this a favourable spring for business – we are now plowing corn ground   have some oats to soaw yet – a great deal of ague & intermitent fever prevailing ––  Janisett? & Aunt Osburn gone to Picton to attend the Quarterly Examination of Ladess? Seminary?   the fields are looking very green   the most of the sown grain is coming up   the woods have very materially changed their complexion and all without looking cheerful & animating? <all is melody> whilst I am waiting I hear the birds singing <O how pleasant> and alltho I have not my health I yet have abundant cause to be thankfull
1849 March 24 the wimter broke about the first of March   the weather had been unprecendented   cold for 6 weeks previous, the frost is not yet out of the ground   the snow banks are yet large in many places   the ice in the bay is not passable   the roads are deep & desperate   no news stirring, times are said to be hard   Abram Gorsline was buried last teusday   no tears were shed over him, he was a miserable unfortunate MAN

What little news we have is the California Gold fever and the difficulties in our Provincial Parliament.    great scrapes between the Reformers & the Tories   the former are completely victorious,   to day the weather is a sour cold and raw   the wind N. E.   we are at present all in good health (a great blessing)   every one at School (of the children) except Ermina   I am more than 40 years old   I feel it so – and do look forward with a degree of composure to the period when time & age shall complete their work   I?

Sunday Aug 9  misty, cloudy & pleasant, this season has been so far the unparalleld for dourth (drouth)   wheat is a mere nothing   spring grain of but little consequence   many have not broken up their fallow ground and few have crossplowed   times are hard and look discouraging: but it has been a general time of health
Wend Sept 19th  Finished sowing to day   we have rain sufficient   many are going to the provincial show   we have <had> some frost, not to as damage
