have to considerably boil down the news. Dad. has plowed all day but says the frost is beginning to make it stiff. Mrs. McBride was here all day. I did chores and went over to Martin's to hurry them up after my cockrel's. Enah went down to church this after noon. The Bishop was here and confirmed Mrs. Jack & Mrs Chas Martin, Mrs Cope, Bill Dunbar, Joe Thompson & Alf Powell. Frank & I went down to A.Y.P.A. to-night. Hazen read us a story. Cold & Cloudy to-day & freezing hard to-night.
