Lose your Farming Journal?

Hello, [Nome]! You lost your Tasty Watermelon Farming Journal, didn't you?

Huh? Oh...I guess I did. How did you know?

Someone came by a little while ago and gave me a Tasty Watermelon Farming Journal. When I was flipping through it, I saw your name in it, [Nome]. Here have a look.

Strange. I was sure I saw your name in it, [Nome]. Ah, well. If you DO lose your journal, come talk to me. I might know where it is.

See, it was your journal. I told you I saw your name, [Nome]. Let me know if you ever lose it again. You can check in with me either by clicking the Event Notifier on the left side of your screen, or just coming to see me. There are a lot of nice people in Maple World, so I'm sure someone will bring it to me.

Shouldn't you see if you have an Etc slot free?
