Wednesday, September 11, 1889

A nice day.  Still cool at night and warm during the day.  I plowed all day.  Squire, Lewis and Zenis helped Uncle Lias thrash.  Landy Hoover came here this evening. He helped Pa load a load of hay.  Fannie and I went over to the Chaffins to spend the evening with Blanch.

  2. " Uncle Lias " would be ELIAS BENNETT , who married Hannah Hayward , daughter of Philip Smith Hayward & Henrietta (Reynolds ).

    Hannah ( Hayward ) Bennett was the sister of John Philip Hayward , and an aunt of Charles E. Hayward .

    So Elias Bennett is an uncle by marriage . Elias & Hannah are buried at Bloom-Switch Cemetery .
