in particular this after noon, and Dad. & Frank just did chores. I gave my arm a good soaking before tea to-night. It is pretty sore again but there is only one big spot left to break on it. It seems to take a very long time to come to a head. Cold wind with snow all day. Freezing hard again to-night.

I came home to dinner but went down town right after and this after noon walked round the hill with Marj. after which we paid Miss McQueen a visit. I ha dtea at Aunty's and to-night we wentn to chirch to hear the Biushop and see the confirmation ceremony. The chirch was packed an dwe had to get a few more seats from the Sunday school. There were about 22 candidates for confoirmation, five of them coming from Vittoria. I stayed at Ayunty's all night. Nice day but freezing.
