Thursday October 3 1907 I did the regular house work as best I could and tried to sew a little in afternoon. I wrote a short letter to Lydia. I heard from all the girls lately. I was miserably sick most of the day. Lizzie came back at supper time did up all the work and we talked till bed-time. Friday October 4 1907 I was all right today. Lizzie went down to her Fathers today andI met her in town at 2.45. We were not together so very much. She was with her Father and I doing errand around town. Will was down and we all came home together at 5.20. Lizzie was very tired but felt better after a warm supper. Another pleasant evening. Saturday October 5 1907 I was busy doing backing and with the dinner. Lizzie did some working. Will went down by car in afternoon and we girls with the buggy. Attended to some things in town and spent the rest of the afternoon in cemetery. Sunday October 6 1907 I took Lizzie down to her old house and I stopped and took dinner at home. Hattie came out with me to supper. Went home early and Lizzie and I did up the work and spent the evening as we have every one she has been here.
