Sunday, January 12, 1919

A good day we all staid
at home until evening.

Jim & Ben and I went to
Marvins. Reese & Paul and Roy
come here a while this evening.
Today was Henry Brumfields
birth day. He was born
January the 12th 1833.

If he could of lived he would
be 86 years olde.

I am glad that them that is
living are well at this time.
There is so much sickness that
I am in constant dread that
some that is dear to me will
have the dreadful disease and
die as so many others has
that was dear to some one.
