204. Sunday June 24th 1877. Rob took a very early start to Toledo this morning. Hatt and Ott went to the valley. It was a long lonesome day, I did not feel very well and put in the time resting. The Children got home and Pete cane over just as we had supper ready. Him and I took a walk down to Robinsons after supper. We all took a final visit on the old porch. Monday June 25th 1877. It rained a deluge this morning. We could get nothing done. In the afternoon We put out a large washing. I went to bed very early. Tuesday June 26th 1877.
