storm here to day [today] at all. The boys trimmed off
the blighted limbs form the apple trees and I
helped this afternoon. This forenoon I filed
the saws three of them.

right Smart shower about 2 O clock. We

Franks folks and Reas's folks and Luther and Miller

home. Meda was quite under the weather but
is a little better to night [tonight]. Will went up to see his
