Thursday October 29th 1903 I did cleaning and other work till noon. I rode as far as Fannies with Will. I walked on to town to get some things and we stopped at Woolfs on the way out. I read a little in the evening. Friday October 30th 1903 I did a little sweeping and got up a nice dinner. I was baking bread too. Aunt Ellen & Libbie came. Milldred did not get up. Mother & Hattie were here in the afternoon. We had a nice visit. It was a fine day so warm and nice. Mollie went home. I knit & read in the evening. Saturday October 31st 1903 I sewed in the forenoon fixing the shirt to my black dress. I did not have much cooking to do Will went to town in the afternoon. I changed the sleeves in my sweater. I knit in evening. Sunday November 1st 1903 I was busy most of the forenoon. Will went to the pasture. Emma McCallister came out I took her back after dinner. Mollie came back in the evening. It was a fine day,
