Friday, October 30, and Saturday, October 31, 1868

Friday, October 30, 1868
This has been a warm day, but very windy. We straightened up the front room, putting down carpet and setting things in order. We got it all finished before dark.
David has been here twice to day. The boys are both out at John Mendham’s to day. Dave wanted to get Rob if he had been at home to help him draw stocks to morrow.
I wish Mrs. Shepherd would send for me to go to work with [?] her [?].

Saturday, October 31, 1868
This has been a rainy day, and rather cool. We have been doing a little of everything to day, baking and moping. Rob is at work for Mr. Riley to day, digging a cellar under his house. Will and father have been cleaning up wheat.
David has been here to day.

Rob came home this evening. Will has gone down town. I wanted to go to day, but it rained, so I could not.
