Clear & Cloudy
Ther. 70o FRI. MAY 6th, 1892 Wind Variable

Another beautiful day, until afternoon
when we had quite a storm
of wind & rain, there was a heavy
storm passed north of us, it looked
like a "hailstorm" to me. Jno Johnson
worked here about 3/4 of a day.
After supper W drove Fritz to the
buggy & brought Mary Wilson over
here & then took Frank & the "Surry"
& taking Dora they went to Olney
to a lecture. W made up hills
for the lima beans he & John did
considerable work in the garden.
I trimmed the four apple trees at
the lower end of the lot.

Clear
Ther 47o SATURDAY 7th Wind N.W.

Quite cool all day with strong
N.W. wind there must have been
a hail storm passed near us yesterday
afternoon. I have had a
head ache all day & feel unwell.
I drove to Ashton to see Ent this
morning. Afternoon Willie took
Dora & Edward in the buggy with
"Fritz" & drove to Riverside: he
expected to put the boat in order
for summer use. The thermometer
indicates 33 degrees lower temperature
than 24 hours ago: from 88o to 55o and
the strong wind makes it cool enough
for fires in the house.

Clear
Ther. 42o SUN. MAY 8th 1892 Wind N.W.

Almost cold enough for frost
this morning & continued cool all day.
Saml Bond Jr: called on his way to
meeting. I drove down to the "bone
mill to prescribe for Jas Johnson's
child "Lizzie". Mrs Ent called me
in to see Ent again & I also saw
Mr Evans at his request. Afternoon
Willie took Dora to church at "Crow Town"
near Brighton. The boys next
door had an increase in their family
of dogs this afternoon to their
great delight. I am still feeling
quite unwell, but better than yesterday.

Clear
Ther. 50o MONDAY 9th Wind N.W.

Another beautiful spring day
Willie worked in the mill all day
and after supper drove "Fritz" to
Brighton & back. I drove down
to the Bone Mill again to see
Jas Johnson's little girl, who is
much better. "Phil" went with me.
After supper I went to the
Lyceum to hear Mr P Laird
upon "Tariff Reform & Cleavland
as the Democratic nominee for
President.
