A bad day. Snowed all day. Not very cold. Mabel is sick. I am so sorrie for her & her mother.
Jim & Ben stripped tobacco. Mr Norman Booker helped them. I killed a chicken & dressed it and got dinner. Helped to holde Mabel some. Josie done what she could. She had to rock Mabel most of the time. Henry & Edna went to school as bad as it was. I have bin mending overalls tonight.
I sympathize with all the poor and hard up people and the sick and that is the most of them.

A cloudy day and a little rain. Jim and Ben worked most of the day. The children went to school. Franklin has a cold. Josie & I got a snack for dinner. Josie washed dishes. I went to Renon and to see Kate Harvey. Had a pleasant evening. I walked there and back. Some thing I won't do many more time without a change. I have to do so much hard work here that I can't get no rest and then don't do half eneough to suit them that I do for.
