Will. Sam Nesbitt & Charlie
came. Will gives a great
description of his trip
after they go. I clean the
floors & get dinner, my
feet so swollen with chilblains
I can not get any
shoes on so as to wear
them. Our cellar froze
last night, the coldest
night yet.

Sunday 15 December 1895
Charlie bought Irene & I home in
cutter not so very cold

Wednesday, Thursday & Friday were
awful days wind North blowing a hurricane
and cold as a western blizzard.
Belle picked and dressed poultry
for market but boat didnt come to
the wharf on Thursday morning
But they drove up on Saturday
as lovely a day as I ever saw.
