FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1870.

Ma and I did not come home last night on account of the bad roads &c. Found things all right this morning. We are geting pretty well along with our ploughing. In a couple of days we hope to finish. The weather seems to be turning colder and looks now as though it might freeze up soon. The written opinion which we recieved last night sets aside all doubt with refference to the Pa's will. We now feel quite relieved It may after {all} go as intended.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1870.

On account of the cold weather at present we thought best to put away our apples and potatoes to day for the winter. Charley has been helping me. He went up to Brown's to night It still looks like winter and feels a good deal like it too. Have felt an unusual degree of fervency of late in offering up my petitions to my Heavenly Father. Especially with refference to the blessing for which I have asked so long. Lord grant that I may desire it with no other than a Holy desire.
