Ther:37 degrees Cloudy & Clearing Wind Variable
Saturday, March 15th, 1890
The ground was covered with
snow this morning but the sun
came out and it disappeared by
noon. Charley drove up to see
A.F. Fairall and down to Dr Frank
Thomas' place calling at Ashton &
exchanging the shoes I purchased
yesterday for Harriet & returning
the ones I bought for Edward, they
being two large for him. He was quite
"croupy" this morning & I kept him
in bed until near dinner time.
Jno: Hickman sent the "camp chair"
home by his son Edward. Willie went
with Charley in his drive this a.m.
Sophie & Fanny Pierce called in the
afternoon. I walked up to the store
Charley & Willie left home in the
buggy for "Glenwood" about 4.25 p.m.
to be gone until some time tomorrow
night.

Ther: 20 degrees Clear Wind N.W.
Sunday, March 16th, 1890
High N.W. wind all last night
and today and very cold. The ground
is frozen as hard as flint & the roads
as rough as can be. "Gilbert" Beal
was here to see Charley soon after
breakfast. After dinner I walked
up to Esq. Fairall's & got a Seidlitz
powder for Edward who did not
get up until near noon. Mary E
Gilpin called and spent an hour
this afternoon. The dog 'Banjo"
came back this morning & I am
afraid Mr. Holland will have
trouble in keeping him since he
has once found the way back
to his old house. There has been
very little passing along the road
today it being so very cold, and
the change so sudden together
with the high wind. It has frozen
every body's energies up completely.
