Sunday April 25th 1880 I went to church this morning and helped with the dinner after I come home. In the afternoon I read some and wrote to Charlie. Rob and I went to the Trinity church to attend memorial service for George Beal Jr in the evening. Monday April 26th 1880 I sewed most of the day on Lees shirts. I got them done before supper. In the evening Mother Rob and I went to see Uncle Toms Cabin. It was a beautiful play. Tuesday April 27th 1880 I did the washing this forenoon and in the afternoon we cleaned the garret. Mother went out to Hortsocks for shrubs and I cleaned up the kitchen while she was gone was tired and went to bed early. Wednesday April 28th 1880 Lee took Mother Hatt and May to the valley to stay all day. I cut two shirts and sewed on them what time I had.
