Wednesday March 30 1910  I was at home all day busy with the regular work and sewing some.  Will went to town in the afternoon.  I was over to Jones in the evening  Thursday March 31 1910  Will went to town in the morning t meet the Trustees to see about buying a grader.  After dinner we got ready to go to Eugene's funeral at 2.30.  There was a  carriage for us.  Ott & Hattie were there too.  It was a fine afternoon and every thing was beautifully arranged.  I stopped and got some things after  I came down town to send home by Will at 4.30.  I then went down to Emma's to visit with John ONeil till 5.30 car.  Friday April 1 1910  I was busy with the work all forenoon.  We looked for Emma & John ONeil out early but they did not come till 3.59.  We enjoyed this call.  I went down with them at 5.12.  We called at Otts & to see Mother.  The girls were away.  I come home at 6.30 and did the work.  Fannie showed us a fine watch some one had given Ott.
