Sun 13 Cloudy looks like rain & did sprinkle Will & Arthur have gone to Idas funeral, its sad to think she had left her children, but God knows best, what is good for each & everyone of us perhaps they will bring them all up stricter than she would. I cannot realize she is gone. Hattie went to the brick Paul went with her. drove Frank. Hattie came over & stayed all night.

Mon 14. looked all day for Marjorie but she did not come. they finished the corn ground then went out at the potato patch got it done & furrowed out & ploughed the Clay patch behind the bees & planted it & cut a lot of wood & mowed the grass & burnt out the brush. I churned 4 lbs 3 oz, I put a band inside of Pauls {coat?} collar

Wed 16 Marjorie went to McCredies I churned, & put the screen in the pantry window had an awful time getting the old screens off & the dead vines pulled off my window.
