Wednesday June 10th 1903 I got Clarence to help me work in the morning. Then he helped Will take some extra horses and a cow to the pasture. I did some ironing, worked butter, cleaned out the drafts to cook-stove, put up strawberries and made fruit salad for Walter to take to his picnic tomorrow. To bed at nine oclock. Thursday June 11th 1903 I did ironing and other work in the morning. Will McGinnis works for Walter today. I went to Mrs Mungers reception in the afternoon. Fannie still in bed. Mother & Hattie took Holson girls to the valley and left then today. Did evening work. Friday June 12th 1903 I baked bread and had churning done this forenoon, washed all the windows down stairs, and got dinner. Will and I went to town in the afternoon. I came back over the river a little while. Fannie is some better today.
