This section of the journal is interesting in that it contains information over a broad range of years.

As these items appear in the very back of the journal, some seem to have been items that Paul and Edwin wanted to remember, in some instances for sentimental reasons.

There is a brief account of the Singing School.

Thank you again to Dan Casavant, for your generous contribution to our understanding of early local history.

The response to this journal has the phones ringing here at the Inn. As the Innkeeper here at the Yeaton Farm Inn, I remain moved by your kindness and caring.

Ending

The ending portion of the Journal is a mixture of dates:

There is an entry for 1890 which appears in the middle of the 1880s section
on the previous screen. This account relates to apples sold.

This section of pages contains information important to the Yeatons.
And there seem to be a couple of promises to pay pages which do not
directly relate to Paul or Edwin.
