They visited their broth- ers, Frank Stephenson at Karnoy, Clay county, and N. E. Stephenson, in Grundy county. They report the corn very backward in Clay, prac- tically no oats and hay on account of dry weather. In Grundy they found the conditions somewhat bet- ter. The corn was looking well, and they raised about half a crop of oats and timothy. The young ladies, while reporting a splendid time, were glad to get back to old Bates.
