Monday, May 4, 1868

A warm day, but cloudy and windy. Melia washed this forenoon, and this afternoon she made cookies and pies. Mother and I went and got some dandelion roots to make some bitters. Pa sowed his oats to day.

Dr. Brown was here to day, and Mother went out and spoke to him. He said he would send my medicine by Rob to night. He is at work for Mr. Clark.
