Iowa Byington Reed diary, July 1, 1902-July 31, 1903

Page 43

Tuesday November 25th 1902
I was at home at work all day. I put a
new band on a skirt and worked on some old
things I got out of the garret. Will was fixing
the crib. Mr. Vaughn husking. Mollie went back to town.
Wednesday November 26th 1902
We went to town early this morning. I went to
the Dr office and to one store and we hurried
home as it began to snow.  There was a couple
of students came out to husk corn. They were
able to work in the afternoon. The field here
at home was finished. I sewed all the afternoon.
Mollie went home for Thanksgiving.
Thursday November 27th 1902
I helped Ida with the dinner and bread baking
before we went down home for dinner which
was so very good. Lorie & Clara with Otts
family were there. We came home in good
time and I knit in the evening.
The young men stay here all night.
