Julia Brumfield Diaries

A cloudy day most of the time and some rain. Ben and Josie both sick. Josie creeps about but should be in bed. The children all have colds. Jim went home this evening. I hope that he may come home alright.

Henry done the feeding tonight. Henry went to Mr Bookers and got some flour.

Mollie and Christenia Reynols come a few minutes this evening. Jim carried some butter to Gretna for me. I was glad to get it off.

A good day. I am at Reynols this morning. Christina brough me home this morning. Found them all well. I milked after I come home. I churned and got dinner. Jim stripped tobacco. Henry rolled wheat land a while. Ben shod the horses. Mr. Booker and two children and Miss Louease[?] Booker come this evening. I was glad that they come. Miss Booker played on the piano a little. Ben and the three children went to Rob Hubbands this evening and will stay all night. They carried the dog with then. Ben wanted to go hunting. Henry went to Strait Stone. I hope nothing bad will happen to him.
