Tuesday November 20th 1883 I helped with the work this morning while Mary ironed. I fixed my black dress sleeves and knit some. The Literary Club met here tonight and we had a pleasant evening Wednesday November 21st 1883 I helped a very little with the work and then went over to Hatts to stay all day I knit on Ediths stockings. I had to come home in a drizzling rain. Was busy all the evening Thursday November 22nd 1883 I was busy sewing all day on muslin for myself and Hatt. I worked on edging at night. Friday November 23rd 1883 I helped some with the work and knit what time I had to spare. Mother was in town all the afternoon. I went out to Fletchers to the club party tonight with Cousin Will. It was a pleasant affair. Henry Pomeroy came today to stay over Sunday. Weather warm and cloudy
