Wind. Clear. Ther. 10
Sat. March 14^th, 1896.

Willie & Fanny remained
here until after dinner, when
they went back to "Fairfield", I
sent some medicine together
with a note to Hallie Lea, in
answer to a note from her. by
Willie & I who were to leave them
at "Eldon". I walked down to
Ashton & had my medicine case
replenished. Lizzie Scott called
& left our butter. Willie & I
each bought some beef from
"Cuff" this morning. Edward
seems much better today.
After supper I walked up to the
store. Edwd went next door to
play chess with Miss Mary Fowler.

Wind.E. & S.E. Snow. Ther.24°
Sun. March 15^th, 1896.

Commenced snowing about sun-
rise this morning & continued all
day until towards evening, when
it changed to a light drizzle, or
misty rain. I went to meeting
which was slimly attended by
consequence of the disagreeable
weather there were about 26
persons altogether. We expected
Willie to have brought Alice
Peirce over today, to make us
a visit of several days, but
suppose the inclement weather
prevented them from turning out.
Quite a number of sleighs were
out today but it is not likely
that the sleighing will last, as
it is not freezing tonight, and
the snow is soft & "slushy". If
it should clear off cold during
tonight there is snow enough to
make quite good sleighing.
