3rd March & Saturday 1894
A beautiful day. Wind S, very calm and
warm. Snow fast disapearing. Mart & Voltie
making a small table for me. Grace
feels rather dissapated after last nights
debauch though she slept till 9 AM.
I did not call her up. Wellie intended
going to K with hay but the roads
are all slush and Wellie so sick.
