Wednesday February 9, 1921

A bad day. Rained morning
and evening. Jim hung up
the meat ready to smoke. Ben
helped Marvin hang up his.
Then they stripped tobacco
the rest of the day. I got
dinner. Killed a chicken
and cooked beans.
Josie made Edna a dress.
She is proud of it.

Mr Sam Owen went to
Gretna with his last
tobacco. I was uneasy
a bout the tobacco. So a
fraid it would get wet.
It solde very well and
he got home about night.
Henry and Edna went
to school.
