A fine day. Mart plowing on
the lower place. Wells fixing the farm
waggon. Voltie doing every chore.
I washed carpet rags and washed
Volties frock and overalls and in
the evening patched and darned. Will came
over in the evening & brought his violin
& Will & Voltie played in concert with
violin an organ. Toward evening the
Pierpont went down by here and blew
us a salute.
