I cut up rails most of the morning but did not cut many. Dick and Frank cracked hickory nuts and I ate all I could get of them. Aunty, Dick and Frank went down to the greenhouse this afternoon as Frank had never seen in them I fooled around. Dad fixed a window in the chicken house so they could see to go to roost. I started to read "The White Plumes of Navarre" to-night. Bath to-night rare.

Sunday NovDecember 3rd

It was very cold all day to-day. Aunty and we boys went down to Sunday school as usual, and Dad and Enah came down to church. The Bishop was there and they had confirmation. It was a very long service. Aunty stayed down to Huby's but the rest of us came home. I read most of the afternoon and evening too. We had dinner about three o'clock and supper about seven. It is freezing very hard to-night. Dad coaxed the sheep into the old chicken house for shelter this afternoon. We could not get them in before.
