John Flynn a cow for 21 dollars.
Devolson drove over for his grandmother,
soup for dinner. Grace
patching my block dress. I cleaned cupboard
in pantry. Wellie started for the
Adirondack mountains to day.
Grace & Volty going to the Morgans
this evening. Went—drove Jess. She
kicked scared and nearly broke the
cutter coming home, stayed till eleven
p.m.—nearly midnight when they return. I sleep on
the couch. Sleep warm enough but
miserable.

Thursday 16 Jan 1895
Awoke this morning with a
lame back. Wind South and cold,
cloudy looks like snow with barometer
pointing fair. Bamford Sr at OBriens getting
cutter irons. V & Ed Bates running fish
nets a fine pike. Grace makes mince pies,
cookies & biscuits. Slept up stairs on the slat
bed.
