Thursday March 7th 1901 I did churning and baking this forenoon and in the afternoon went down home while Will went on to town. I read all of the evening. Friday March 8th 1901 I was busy about the house all forenoon.

Monday March 11th 1901 I was busy about the house work a great part of the day. Will helped me take the extra things out of the parlor and I washed up the floor.
