Satur day January 10th
This has been another beautiful day but is frosty to night
I puttered around at the chores this morning and tore
down a big {comshack} and got all the inside of it
into the barn and stacked the outside along the
chicken house to melt the snow & off it. Karry
B was out with me and was disturbed the
cosy winter qualities of several mice which interested
him greatly. It seems sort of hard lines to turn
them out in the cold after they had get fixed up so
comfortably for the winter: The cats got some of them later
I went over and swept the school house after dinner
and while I was there Dad. & Jim came out in the {bob}.
straight to get Queen’s harness. They came over to the
school and I went back with them and waited at the
farm while Dad drove Queen & my cutter down to get
Aunty Alice and Miss {Qruenest} the pianist of the evangelicas
company, whom he brought over for tea and their I
drove my cutter straight home. Dover intermediate
416.4. team went to {Srin} we last night & beat them 8-0
Sunday January 11th
We harried around this morning doing the usual chores
and getting dressed up leaving about noon to have dinner
at the Bugley’s. It was very bright but a cold east wind
I left May & the kids at the house, then drove down, and put
Queen on Aunty’s barn. This after noon Mr. Bagley and I
went to meeting Mr. Robinson was having in the town
hall for men only. I was averse to going but Mr.
Bagley assured me we would be out early and so I
couldn't very well get out of it. There was a good crowd there
and Mr. Robinson spoke very well and as nicely as his
subject permitted but as I heard it or read it all before
and as far as I can see ann in no position to either help
or hinder his work, and as the hall was cold and as it
was after five when we got out I was very sorry I went.
I hurried back with Mr. Bagley and got my sweater and then
hurried down to get Queen as it was getting very cold. Mrs.
Bagley was going to get tea for us but I wouldn't wait but
thought she would give May: a cup which I was gone but
she didn't. We got home about six and I guess I was the
coldest of the party but I got warmed up doing chores
Monday January 12th
It has been milder to day but cloudy. I seem to have
felt lazy and didn't do much but the chores. This

Fore noon I cut down mate to the pine tree that I cut last
winter just behind the barn.
