Page 34

Tuesday April 26 1910  I was busy with the work all forenoon I began to wash some things for my rug but Will finished them  I had intended to go down home but Mother was feeling better. Will to town in afternoon awhile.  Wednesday April 27 1910  I was very busy all forenoon.  Will churned for me.  He promised to help Art plant potatoes so did not go down to [Misonia's?] funeral. I went at 1.10 and the party were on the train.  Hattie was at the station and we had the White [illegible] [Misonia?] showed she had been a great sufferer.  We greeted the friends and came on down town.  Went down to Minnie's to call and later attended a musical recital  home at 5.30  Thursday April 28 1910  I got a little time to work at rug [illegible?] in the morning.  Will went to town soon after dinner.  I at 2.18 took Fannie's butter.  I went up home for a visit with Mrs Horne who was there.  We walked bak to town together.  I came home at 5.30.  [illegible] thinks she feels better today.  I was late with my evening work.  A card from L D L.  She has started east.
