15th January 1904 Friday
A very bright day not a cloud to be seen but snow
now very deep and somewhat drifted and very deep
in the river. after breakfast Voltie and Sr drive to
Lindys to break out the road again; drew a little wood
and snow so deep could not draw much came at
one pm. Maud washed a few things by melting snow
they had to shovel a path around through the orchard,
bring water from the river. All drifted high
by the old path. I made mince pies, cooked corn
and apples, cooked potatoes and meat for dinner.
Tis growing dark now and V & Sr are doing chores
and I must look after the supper. A letter from
Mrs Brooks and one from Grace and one from Gladys. Whig, Herald, Women American
