Clear
Ther. 29 MON. NOV. 20^th, 1893 Wind N.W.
Clear & cold Edwd walked
over to see "John" early & found
him "in bed", he came to help
in the lot. I sharpened the
wood saw somewhat, with
the help of Phil & Edwd.
Approved some bills against
our public School, sent to me
as one of the Trustees by {?}
J. T. Henderson. I went down
stairs again to supper and find
it easier to get up stairs each
time I try it. Although it is still
quite an undertaking.

John came & helped in the lot
again. Charles E Bond's team
brought us a nice load of chestnut
wood (5 horses) Bro: Richd
called about noon & Dora got
him a cup of tea, it blew up cold
with a flurry of wind & snow,
the snow continuing all the
afternoon & evening (except when
it rained). Edith Bentley's
colored girl "Nelly Hall" was
here for advice & medicine
which I gave her. She
being the first patient I
have seen for more than
two months. This threatens to
be a terribly stormy night.
