April 6th 1905 - Selected a homestead

6th day of April. Mr. Smith then took us out again this time nearer to his own place but the best of homestead lands had been taken up there was some but stoney. They were near Battleford, trail did not seem too lonely, lots of traffic on the trail so we chose one each there, I taking M.E. q 14-39-11. They chose on 12-39-11 W. Third Meridian. As we had come here together we did not like to be separated, it would have been better for me if we had.
