This an exceedingly cold day,
thermometer was about zero at
8 .o clock this morning and only
12 above at one o clock. The
wind has been blowing strong
since mid night last, which
makes it colder for us, carrying
off heat as fast as generated.
I have felt miserable all day
with head ache & pain in the back
& limbs. Afternoon went up to
the P.O. & called at the toll gate.
