A cloudy day rain
this evening and tonight.
Lightning and thunder
tonight. We all have
bin at home all day.
Ben cut the aspen that
I wanted him to. The
children carried most
of the brush out for
me. I washed some
few things this morning.
I had rain water to
use. Hilda is here
yet it was so bad
she could not go
home. They all have
tried their [best]. Seven today
had to stay in the
house most of the
time. Henry & Ben
are at the dineing room
tonight studying [puzzles?].
The last [entry]for this year.
Mabel says she is glad Hilda
did not go home.
