Onie Nelson was here for dinner I took a short sleep after dinner and then worked some more on my spread Mother and Bridget were both away Rob and I went over to Towns where we spent a very pleasant evening. Saturday February 4th 1882. I got my work all done and dress changed before dinner. I went over to Hatts and we made calls all the afternoon in the east part of town. I staid at her house till after supper and Otto came to take me to hear Alford P. Burbank at the Opera house. Hatt and Flora went too. I got me a piece of satin at the Panic store today to make a suit with my velvet skirt Weather perfectly delightful for the time of the year.
