Saturday 1st April 1899
A bright day, ground frozen.
Sr goes to City driving dog cart.
Went for grass seed and a
pair of shoes Adams is manufactoring
for W. Sr. Irene does the disagreeable
buisness of mending old garments and
over coat for Sr and also a shirt & a dress
for Maud. Grace irons clothes
Maud cleans floors. Our
mop is an old broken down thing
comes to pieces every swipe across
the floor. I arrange the Saturday
posts for Bob; I'm going to send them
next week: W Sr came home early
brought grass seed, shoes for himself,
letter paper for me, sewing
machine needles for Grace,
soap, matches &c. John Coxall
here playing checkers with V. then
came Jen and Will - horn blowing.
I gave Jen my white apron with
knited lace.
