Monday 3rd February1908.

A fine day. Snow & deep, deep
and drifted. but the sun is shining
brightly. After dinner, Voltie and Ray
brake and shoveled road from here to
the main road and and drove down
to their hay stack by Geo Niles and
drew two loads of hay. It was surpirsing
to see The Woodmans driving across from
over the river trunching on the ice is both
hard and dangerous at present.
Charlie Dixon came with them &
passed by with them to Uncle Samuel's,
ate dinner there. Then Charlie and
noisy Frank came back down there
for an hour or two till V and Ray
return from drawing hay then after visits
with them awhile, Frank goes home & Chas goes
over to Rachels where he stays over night
except he goes to a surprise party at Snubs.
V and Ray and M are invited over the
phone but they didn't attend but play
checkers. V & R till midnight till I
was thoroughly disgusted.
