Cloudy & Snow
Ther. 30^o SAT. NOV. 26^th, 1898 Wind SE, SW & W.
Cloudy & threatening early this
morning & soon commenced snowing
a little & continued at intervals
all day & up to bed time
tonight, the ground being soft it
does not accumulate very fast
and tonight is not more than
2 or 3 inches deep, since sun
set it is colder. I went to Esq.
Fairall's office before dinner &
to the P.O. Afternoon Edwd &
Dora went to "Fairfield" (in phaeton)
to assist at an oyster supper at
"Crowtown" for benefit of the
St Lukes Church. I fear there
will be a slim attendance in
such weather. After supper I
started to go to the store but fell
down on the turnpike & turned
back. Lizzie Scott called to
see Dora.

Clearing
Ther. 25^o SUN. NOV. 27^th, 1898 Wind N.W.
Cold this morning and indeed
all day the wind blowing strong
fro N.W. ever since sun set
last night. I did not go to meeting.
The children Dora & Edwd came
home in time for lunch. After-
noon I went to A F. Fairall's and
revaccinated his daughter "Naomi"
I have felt quite unwell, having
taken cold from the sudden
change in the temperature.
"Dick" Matthews was here for
advice & medicine for their
little girl.
