Our family is going to the Carlisle Branch next week for church, so are excited to go visit some of the places where our Great Grandfather served and walked.

We spent most of today in study. In the evening went to visit Bro. Armstrong. Then to Bro. and Sister Sanders then to Sis. Atkinson's then home.
Tuesday, May 23, 1905. Carlisle. Fine day.
This morning we arose. Had breakfast. Studied a short time. Then went to call on a Sister Pane who was ill. After leaving her place we went to the Carlisle park. Spent an hour or so there very happily. On our way home, we purchased some paints and in the afternoon we drew a large map of Palestine to use in our Mutual. Also studied our mutual lesson.

Wednesday, May 24, 1905. Carlisle. Fine weather.
Studied in the forenoon. In the afternoon we went tracking. Met with good success. Came in contact with a Church of England minister. Had quite a long conversation. I didn't convert him nor he me. although I talked to him very straight. He addled me on Polygamy, so I took him to the Bible. Proved to him that it was a righteous practise and was sanctioned by God. He could not get around it. Finally, he begged to be excused as he was in a hurry to go some place. So he said we part friendly. I bade him good afternoon. After we finished tracking, returned to lodge. Had tea and at 7 P.M. went to M.I.A. Sister Atkinson's Lesson. Geography of Palestine. We were just beginning the manual (Life of Christ). After Mutual, had supper and returned to lodge.
