Sunday January 4th

When we got up this morning which was late we found ourselves almost snowed in, so we had to get right to work and spend an hour or two shovelling ourselves out. but by breakfast which we had somewhere in the vicinity of ten o'clock we had the buildings pretty well connected by canals through the drifts, some of the paths are pretty roundabout but we took advantage of all bare spots along the sides of the buildings and made them part of the paths. We put in thew rest of he day doing cores Dick culdn't very well get down town this afternoon so he slept till noon and this afternoon he helped us move the piano from the parlor to the living room and Enah played for us most of the afternoo. Tiddums also tore off a little ragtime for us but spent most of tis time on the floor. No one has been off the place to-day and no outsoder been on it. It has been cloudy (mostly) cold and windy ut as the snow had acked a little it didn't drify uch to-day, it is milde to-night.
