Tuesday, April 14, 1868

This has been a rainy day, but not very cold. I have been sewing again to day. I have made 2 blocks.
Melia and Will are out in the garden now, digging up the old lilac bushes that stood on the borders.

I don’t think I feel quite as well as I did yesterday. Mother is not very well to day; she has got a lame back. She has been writing to Clara to day.

Niece Notes: "Lame" means aching. It was a more common term then than it is now.
