  • Notes 
    • Caroline Dearling on farm making in the 1830s:

      I must tell you, all the potatoes you sent us, we had two gallons and 1/2 grow. I am in hopes that we shall have a good many this year, they look well now... Now I will tell you of the wheat sown last fall, 9 acres, and all looking very prosperous... You say in your letter you come and be bailey for us, but I think you had better come and help do the hard work, for if the hard work was done, we could bailey for ourselves. We have 3 acres rye, 3 1/2 of oats, 2 of peas, 1 acre of spring wheat, 1 acre of potatoes. It was a backward spring, but every thinly grows fast. I have 34 chickens. I think the farmer will be [pressed] to find fault before harvest. John has been very busy for to do the spring work; now he has finished his chopping for this year; he has 7 acres chopped, but not any burnt off for it is very showery weather at present and very hot indeed.

      Dated 15 July 1838 at Waterloo in "Letters from emigrants sent out to Upper Canada by the Petworth Committee in 1832, 1833 and 1837" (Metro Toronto Central Reference Library).
