Maggie and I went out to Dover this afternoon driving our Flora colt for the first time single to the cutter. I went down to see Mr John McCarty about threshing our cloverseed. The weather is very cold at present. {second page} January SUNDAY 15 1893 Went out to Dover this morning as usual takeing Maggie and Jim with me. Found the weather very cold and windy for driving. Were surprised on geting home from church to have my father and sister-in-law to come in soon after very unexpectedly.
