I came home with a basket full of delicious provisions from there and found Enah had been over with some rice pudding and parsnips, so I lit a fire in the grate and Marj. got up and we had lunch in by the fireplace where we stayed all the after noon and had a lovely time coming to the conclusion that it was a good thing Marj. did fall down stairs. I went over to the farm about four but first went over to Mrs. Woodson's and took what phonograph records I could find there, just as I left Essie, Woodyer & Miss Jacques came in to see Marj. When I came home for tea Marj. had it all ready in by the fireplace so we had another delightful evening Mrs Woodson's records proved to be no good according to our tastes, but that didn't matter much. Cloudy, mild

Monday March 14th

Marj. had her breakfast in bed again this morning but got up about ten, she hasn't felt very well all this after noon as her heart was bothering her. I set the whole seven hens I got from George this morning putting 15 eggs under nearly every one so that they are covering over 100 eggs. I then went with Dad out to the big ditch and we deepened it three or four inches, we have the big lake nearly drained now. Frank went down town and got some nails this morning and this after noon he and Dad. fixed the barn where Moonshine poked a hole in it bigger than himself. I didn't get over till late as I washed the dished for Marj. shook the mats and wrote to Adam Thompson Esq. I took down some milk & eggs to Aunty right after tea but didn't stay to band practice as Marj. didn't feel like going down and I didn't want to leave her here alone all evening. Aunty Maude has not been so well the last few days and is getting very weak Cloudy & raw east wind all day but no frost.

Tuesday March 15th

I wore Mr. Zealand's rubber boots over this morning and Dad. and I let a lot of water off some of the smaller ponds that drain into the big one and the big ditch. Enah came in here at noon on her way down town and brought my show card lessons they had all passed but one so I did it again to-night. Marj. has felt better to-day and is not nearly so stiff. We just did chores this after noon. Lovely day, very mild.
