Saturday February 18th 1882. It was a rainy day I hurried through my house work and put in every spare minute on my bed-spread. Sunday February 19th 1882 I was home at work all the forenoon and after dinner wrote a letter to Charlie I went over to see Mrs Funk and came around past Hatts. I found Ott there and John and Hatt came over to supper. I went to bed early. Monday February 20th 1882. It was a wintry disagreeable day I worked constantly on my bed-spread Bridget washed out a few things in the afternoon and put the things in the garret. A letter from Clara Shirts. Tuesday February 21st 1882. I was at home at work all day. Ott and Lee went down to Uncle Jims party tonight. I thought it too cold to go did a good days work on my spread. A letter from Clara Musselman.
