Monday November 2nd 1903 I went down town to see about my hat. I did some other trading and stopped at home a few moments. I cleaned the garret in the afternoon. Tuesday November 3rd 1903 I did the washing alone in the morning and in the afternoon I swept and cleaned up stairs. It was election and Will went down to vote. Wednesday November 4th 1903 I ironed and baked cookies besides getting the dinner. We went to town in the afternoon. I got material for a hat. we were at home and at Woolfs. Thursday November 5th 1903 I had churning and swept the lower story in the forenoon. I went down town in the afternoon I was at home. Mother gave me $5.00 for a present. I did some shopping and had to come home without my hat. I worked till bed-time getting things ready to pack. weather clear and cool.
