Saving...
Friday September 29th 1882. I hurried and got the work done up and started to get the dinner while Mother went to town. Emma went back to the valley this morning. Mrs Middleton spent the day here and helped us a great deal about the work. I baked three cakes after dinner. I then got ready and went down to Sperrys where I was invited to tea. I had a delightful visit. I staid there till Otto came after me to go down to Onies party I enjoyed that very much indeed. Saturday September 30th 1882. I was busy about the house all the forenoon, and in the afternoon sat down awhile. Mother went over to town. I felt very tired and sleepy after being up so late last night so went to bed early.
