Saturday June 2nd 1883 I helped considerable about the work today. Mother was in town before noon and brought Edith home with her and Father and I took her back after supper. I made May a skirt today. Lee came from Burlington tonight. Sunday June 3rd 1883 I was busy about the house all the forenoon. May and I were down to Robinsons in the afternoon. Lizzie goes home tomorrow. When we came home found Edith here her Papa had brought her over and he came for her after supper. Mother and May went over to spend the evening. I wrote a note to Ella Bird. Monday June 4th 1883 I went to town twice today I brought Edith over for the afternoon. I sewed what time I could on Mothers dresses Lee took Edith home. I worked on my edging all the evening. Weather warm
