Thursday December 11th 1879 I went over town early this morning to help work on Mothers dress. I got my dinner at Mygatts. I made arrangements with a woman there to fix some hair for me. I went to Wairs and from there to prayer meeting. Lee came after me. Weather very cold indeed. Amy [Megagisee?] came today Friday December 12th 1897 I went over to sew again today. I came home about five oclock and helped get the supper over and Rob and I went to society I took my dinner with me today, still cold. Saturday December 13th 1897 Matt went to work for Mrs Ogden today I helped do up the work and in the afternoon went over to the church. Hatt came in there to, it was half past four before we got started home. We had some errands to attend to. I got my puffs they were done. I helped get the supper over and did some mending in the evening, Weather pleasanter.
