Thursday January 16th 1902 Will sold three hogs this morning that brought nearly $65.00. Dell took then down in the waggon and Will went in the buggy and brought Mother back with him. We had such a good visit and Mollie took her home. Friday January 17th 1902 I was busy about the work. We went to town in the afternoon. I took in some eggs and got some groceries. I did other trading, stopped at Woolfs a few moments on the way home. Mollie went home. Saturday January 18th 1902 I have quite a cold and Will very severe one. I was busy about the work all morning and did sewing in the afternoon. Will went down town. We are getting quite a few eggs. weather and roads fine. Sunday January 19th 1902 I was busy most of the forenoon as it was late when we got up. I had dinner early and went down to take Mother a couple of roosters. Will went as far as Woolfs.
