Lucy records her baking, housework, and so much more. Arthur’s away collecting milk from farmers and hauling cheese to Ernestown. Capable Lucy milks the cows, mows hay, splits wood, trawls Odessa Lake, shoots a skunk, and wrestles a weasel with her bare hands. You will be astounded by the amount of goods, food, housework, and sewing that she shares with friends and relatives. When she scalds her face and torso, her friends are there for her. By 1912, the family have moved closer to town. Jennie is a seamstress and Arthur is doing various jobs.
