Wednesday April 5th 1893 I was busy doing baking all the forenoon. I fixed some dinner early for Mrs Bremner as she went home. In the afternoon we girls went over the river.

We had hardly finished the morning work when Mollie Stevens come for a visit. I helped with the work and got the dinner. I did some mending and went up town in the afternoon. Lee was over awhile. Mr Gordon came back this morning. Friday April 7th 1893 I was busy about the house most of the day put up some more curtains, did a little fixing with carpet. Will went to the valley in the afternoon and after supper he led a horse back over to Halsons and them we went to Woolfs for a call. Saturday April 8th 1893 Fanny went over home to spend the day.
