of their bodies had melted and then it had frozen again so I was about half an hour scrubbing them off dry. After breakfast which we had about ten o'clock I got ready and went down to Aunty's getting there areoub noon. The gas downtown was poor but the house was fairly comfortable. Mr. Millman was still in bed but Mrs. Millman had just got up and had dinner with us. They nearly froze in the night and Mr. Millman got up and wrapped Aunty Alice's sweater around his head. After dinner I went up to see Marj. but came back to Aunty's to tea. {name?} was there and decided he'd stay to tea as he didn't think he would get anything to eat at home on account of the poor fires.

We were sure there would be no classes today so didn't go down. Neff couldn't get down till this afternoon from Simcoe and none of the boys could get in from far out in the country. They said Lloyd {surname} was up here to dinner yesterday so he was visiting the neighbors to see how they survived the storm and he told them that that Harry Dyer and old Mr. Mead nearly perished in the storm Saturday night.
