Wednesday December 7, 1921

A good day. Ben helped
Mr Edmons kill hogs.
Jim helped to grind sausag
and carrie the lard to the
spring then shucked some
corn. This evening Jim & Ben
helped to load the waggons
for Marvin. They intend to
move away tomorow. I hope
they may have a good day.
Josie and Nellie ground sausag
and seasoned it and got
dinner & supper.
I staid at the wash house
and dried up the lard. We
made a good lot of lard.
The children went to school.
Oh how we all will miss
Marvin and all of the
family. I think it may be
the best thing that he can do.
Time will tell them that lives to see.
