Sunday 4 Jan 1914
Cloudy and has all the appearance
of a snow storm. Notwithstanding
all the appearance Emma went
to church and from there to
Hiram Joslins, rode down with
Maggie and the Gillespie twins
Clara & Dell. V and Edith
prepared the dinner. Edith washed
the dishes, then went up to see
Maggie Maggee and carried her
a doll. V went to the old house
and brought a mess of beans, we
had pea soup for dinner and a chocolate cake

Monday 5 Jan 1914
Clear and cold. Wind NE
Business is booming this day
within door and out ie I guess
it will be. Maggie J gave Em
a fancy cup and saucer yesterday, also
Sylvia went to the English church
yesterday and saw E & E's sister.
E at church with E Irvine.
Emma and Edith cleaned every
calico from the boxes at foot of
my bed and filled the two
marketing bags full.
