Wednesday September 28th 1904
I got my work done early and went down to
the wedding of Dr Fitzpatrick and Marnie Murphy
at St Patricks church. The service was very
fine. I got home in time to get dinner. The
weather was so warm and I was so tired I did
not feel like doing any thing all afternoon.
Will was miserable all day.
Thursday September 29th 1904
I was busy all forenoon doing baking. Will feels
better and went down town in the afternoon on
the car. I put up tomatoes all afternoon.
Friday September 30th 1904
I was busy most of the forenoon with the work.
I went down home in the afternoon and Will
went on to town. I got some hickory nuts.
Fannie is not well. was there awhile.
Saturday October 1st 1903
I did some sweeping in the forenoon. After dinner
we went to town. I got a bushel of peaches and
came right back. Will came on the car. I put
up part of the peaches after supper.
