Wednesday, Dec 26, 1888 I had slight "unconsciousness" at table Morn. Mercury 25°+ P.M. ground white this morn, & snow falling all day with strong breeze from north. About as usual with our folks & busy as ever at usual duties should think, but of course little girls shut in doors all day, but new toys helping occupy attention, & rec'd more from cousin "Mary Clyde" in eve. About same self, & with regular routine writing Aunt Lina & Uncle L. Thursday 27 Colder, 14°+ last P.M. more pleasant but quite windy still. Much same with our folks & spending day much same, only Ellery took his dinner at B- church again, girls couldn't be out much, tho' snow was shovel'd away somewhat. After good nights rest tho't self as well, tho' did realize considerable nervousness with threatenings but not to trouble others, spending day as usual
