Monday February 19th 1883 We got the washing done and house all cleaned up before dinner and I was sewing in the afternoon. We all went over to Fletchers to the party and had just a splendid time. Roseberry came tonight. Tuesday February 20th 1883 I was busy about the house all the forenoon and after dinner Mollie and I went over to Hatts to see how Flora was and found she was not much better. Minnie Mc_ came there and Mollie went home with her. I came on home just before supper to find Otto & Roseberry busy packing their books. I was all the evening doing work for Ott.
