was appointed foreman, and after
reading the minutes of the last
meeting at this place we started
out for a short walk, the weather
being very unpleasant and the ground
being covered with snow we of course
did not get any farther than the barn.

Our host was putting in some
ice that was about 4 inches thick
but like the weather it was getting
soft and wet.

The very neat and comfrtable

the barn was spoken of by many
members, the barnyard was pronounced
the warmest belonging to the
club and the calltle all looked as
thought they lived at home, the
Durham bull was rather small for his age
