A good day. Ben is hauling logs to the mill. Jim & Owen is cutting. Henry went to school. Edna & Franklin is complaining. Kate come today and eat dinner with us. She got a letter saying that Virginnia is better. She said she hoped to be able to sit up by Monday. We heard today that Willie Hubbard was dead. All we hear about nearly is sickness & death. I will be so glad when this dreadful disease passes if I live to see that.
