Cloudy
Ther. 30^o FRI. FEB. 17^th, 1893 N.E. Wind

Raw and chilly looks & feels like
snow again. We were all up this
morning by lamplight to get Charley
& Ida & the baby off. Jno W Johnson
came early and drove them over
to Rockville in the Surry with
"Frank" & one of E Gilpins horses.
They left here at 8-10. I fear it
will be a rough experience for
the poor little infant. I sent the
money to buy a Williamson note
$15.30. John got home about 1-15
p.m. It commenced snowing and
sleeting & hailing about 11 o'clock
with strong wind from N.E.
Edward was not well enough to
go to school, it is the first day
he has missed since school
commenced.

Clear
Ther. 29 SAT. FEB. 18^th, 1893 Wind N.W.

Clear & cold with strong wind
from N.W. Snow enough to made good
sleighing. Chas. G.Porter called. I drove
to Brookeville in the sleigh to see
Eng Ware & paid him $40.00 for Charley
on account of a note to Edward
Boswell giving new note for ballance
at twelve months Frank Robison
went with me. Saml Hopkins
was buried this p.m. at Woodside
Cemetery. Mr. C M Colt brought
Willie's sleigh home and paid me
his bill $(23.05). Sleighing is quite
good on the turnpikes, but was
soft on southern exposures in the
middle of the day. I walked up to
the store after dark.
