give him more than seventy so Dad. didn't sell. Frank and I bagged up some oats and Dad. wrote to Dick he heard from him yesterday and they have been quarintined for Spinal Meningitis and Spotted Fever. He said he had seen Billy Sloan who is stationed about five miles from where Dick is. This after noon Frank and I took the oats we bagged up down and had them chopped and drove down town to post Dad's letter. Frank saw Moses Fisher about fixing up his military overcoat and Moses said he could have it dyed and remodel it to make a good civilian coat for 3 or 4 dollars. Marj. came over after four to-night to return a sweater of Enah's and stayed to tea. I got ready to go with her to church to-night but it was seven o'clock when we got through tea and as she had to stop on her way down to pay Newman Silverthorne for lodge dues, we stayed here for the evening and guessed riddles.

Thursday March 6th

It froze pretty hard last night but has been a beautiful sunny day though wintry. Dad. and Frank hauled up two loads of wood with the sleighs this morning
