"Same subject continued" glorious weather and all quiet here at Asylum. Annual Report will have to be written this month, not begun yet, meter moving slowly, wedding to attend in Sarnia next week—a nephew of Mrs Bucke's (Fred. Kittermaster a young and very promising lawyer) marrying a daughter of Mr Pardee—will be a grand affair. You ought to see the melon patch in our garden here—hundreds of melons lying thick on the ground   Little Robbie has just come into the office—all the rest of the children go to school—Robbie has got to be a great boy for horses—wants to be riding or driving all the time—can handle a quiet horse as well as any one—will be seven years old the coming Xmas.

I suppose you have not yet read "Robert Elsmere" by Mrs Ward—it is quite a book & I believe has made quite a stir in England—I am just reading it—it is calculated to make the modern Britisher think—

Love to you RM Bucke   See notes Sept 10, '88
