Cold again. Wind North & freezing.
Milly's funeral at 10 Oclock am.
George Niles came home to day.
Wellie plowed part of the day. Voltie,
Grace & Maud go to the funeral. Sarah
stayed home and sewed on Graces
wrap. Wallace Niles helped. Voltie
drags hay from stack and pitches
up into the barn. Maude went to
Rachels to get me two eggs and made
a little visit. Rachel sent me two books.
A clear bright cold day and evening.
Grace, Voltie & Sarah went over to
Digmans to visit this evening,
returned at 1/2 past 11 p.m. I very
sleepy and go to bed at 11 pm
after making a rousing fire
in the stov. Last I remember as I
am partly asleep is Grace coming in with
the lamp to see if I am asleep, the little
round smiling face looking down & saying
ma are you sleeping
