143 Saturday January 13th 1877 I sewed all day and knit in the evening Miss Hughs spent the afternoon down to Aunt Libs. Weather still cold. Sunday January 14th 1877 Aunt Em took the children and we all went to Aunt Libs today We had a very pleasant visit. I read all the evening. Monday January 15th 1877 It snowed all day so we could not go up to Aunt Sarahs as we had intended. I worked steadily on Aunt Ems dress all day and knit in the evening. Tuesday January 16th 1877 We went down to Aunt Lindas today and had a good visit and quite a sleigh ride I did not get much sewing done. Baby was not well and took all of Aunt Ems time. Just as soon as we got home Aunt Em and Grand-ma both went to doctoring her. Every thing was quiet tonight for all were anxious about Baby. I knit some in the evening
