I reported at the mill this 
morning 615 AM.
In #1 mill #3 room I tried 
to finish fixing my looms so they 
would run better this morning 
before starting time.  On one loom 
there was a buckle that 
interfered with setting the harness 
right and I ask the loom 
fixer to take off same. he 
said have you been fooling 
with it, I said yes, he said fix 
it yourself. ([comment:] Lanier!!!)
The loom stood a little while 
before he taken the buckle off.  
but he didn't set the harness 
so the selvage would run.  and 
I asked him why he didn't fix some. 
he only said keep your hands 
off the loom, and worked on 
the loom again but didn't do 
it any good.  I said if you 
can fix looms I don't see why 
you can't fix that loom. he 
said if you know so much 
about it fix it yourself.  
the said loom stood over one 
hour before I had time to fix same

while the said loom fixer 
loafered.  ([comment:] See Overseer)
The said looms are on #1 section 
and Gip Leenear is the said fixer
The said looms are the first 
looms I have openly fixed so 
they would run better since 
I have been here I am sorry 
I had to fix same but with a 
fussy loom fixer and looms running bad there 
was nothing else to do.  
About one hour after starting time 
this morning windows all closed 
it was 80 wet 84 dry and my work 
which is 14 SW run very good 
but later several windows were 
opened and it was 88 dry 84 wet 
and my work run very bad but 
kept the looms going by speeding 
up.
