A good day. It rained a shower at Gretna but not a drop here. We need rain so bad. Nellie caned & preserved some berries for us this morning. She went home this evening. Ben carried her to Gretna. I went with them. Ben bought some ship stuff and beet pulp for the cows. Josie got dinner. She went to Marvins a little while. Mr Woodall left Marvins this evening.
Ben & Jim and Julia & I went to Strait Stone to the show to night. There was a big crowd. It was good of its kind.

A good day. A little rain tonight. It is needed so bad. Jim & Ben & Henry worked on the tobacco most of the day. Ben went to the mill at Cedar Forest. The water was so low that they could no grind. Franklin and I went with him. I fished a fished caught two fish.
Josie ironed some. Julia got a dress by mail. I am glad that she got it.
No one from here did not go to the show to night. It is raining now.

A clear hot day. Ben & Jim and Henry, Edna, Franklin, Reese, Paul, Roy all went to Altavista to a show. I think they all enjoyed it very much. Today is Paul Smiths birth day. He is nine years olde. Josie sewed some this evening.
I went to Marvins a while. Carrie was makeing Roy some blouses. I am going to make the button holes.
I put my glasses in the range this morning and ruined them. I have mised them so much today.
