Sunday May 19 1907 The boys took Hal & Joker to the pasture this morning I really did not do a thing all forenoon. After I had dinner for Will and I, I read and wrote some. There is a high wind jist like last Sunday. Hattie was out for an hour in afternoon. I did evening work and went to bed early. Monday May 20 1907 I had churning to do and was busy all afternoon Went down town at 1.37. When I got to the Dr office I found Will Woolf was very sick. I went over with the Dr and then back to town to do my errands and home at 4.20. Will was planting corn on the Woolf land I did evening work. Was tired so went to bed early. Tuesday May 21st 1907 I did some baking and got the dinner. Will finished planting corn at noon and in the afternoon took seed - corn and potatoes down to the home folks. Billy helped me and we did a large washing. I got part of the clothes dry. My cold is much better. It was late when I got the evening work done had a pretty [illegible] card from Aunt Sarah.
