83. Wednesday July 19th 1876. The girls ironed this morning and I did a little baking. I felt awful sick. It made me provoked for I had expected to feel better this morning. Mrs Dr Moon, Her mother and Mrs E. B. Moore came over in the forenoon and just after dinner Mrs Robinson and Mrs Miller came I felt better in the afternoon and enjoyed the company. After supper Rob and I took a horse back ride. I helped take care of the milk and went right to bed. Thursday July 20th 1876. Mother went to town this morning and While she was gone, Will Chalfant came over to measure for his room I did the work and a little sewing for I do not feel well. Friday July 21st 1876. Lou and I took a start to the valley at last. We ate dinner at Aunt Marys and late in the afternoon went on down to Aunt Libs. Got there just as she had supper ready
