Wednesday February 25th

We formulated a plan this morning whereby we wer to have an early lunch and leave immediately afterwards for town dropping gay off at Mrs. Lamkin's. I was to leave Marj. & Harry B. down town and go over to the farm and get the team there and get a oad of silage for myself, then if there wasnt time to bring it home out here leave it at the farm all night.

I went ove rto the Lampkin's and Mrs. lampkin quite joyfully agreed to keep the baby in spite of the fact that she had had a party last night which had not dispersed till two o'clock and that she wa sstill lame & sore from a bad fall she lad ;ast Saturday. They have both had tiumbles Dave fell a. wek ago yesterday and struck his head so that he was knocked senseless & remained dazed all day. Then on Saturday the water was running so high iver the roa that Dave declared it impassable for him toreach the mailbox and forbade he to attempt it. She however was anxious to get the mail thinking there might be some word from Mrs. Schram
