Thursday, Dec. 6, 1888 "Coolest morn" guess, but 40° most P.M. quite breezey, but from south & clear most of day. All appear as well with our folks, & guess spending day much as usual, little girls improving time to play out in air, & of course over at grandpa's once or more thro' the day. Tho't self better after another good nights rest, but had an "unconsciousness" in chamber A.M. spent day as usual, & at Braytons for little water P.M. Friday 7 Hardly as cool morn, & Mercury about 40° good part P.M., but more cloudy, & windy still. Much same with our folks, think, & with usual duties busy as ever. Tho' didn't see Ellery after he left in morning. Taking his supper at mite society at Presbyterian church, Ch- not farther away than her fathers. Quite as well self, & with few extra chores spending day much as usual, taking two meals in chamber.
