A colde windy day. Jim and Ben cut and split the cut paper tree up for wood. It was a job that kept them busy all day.

Josie got dinner and supper. I ironed some this morning and set by the fire most of the evening. Marvin went to Gretna this evening. He got some turkeys from Miss Roles.

Two of them was for Jim. I do hope he may have good luck with them.

A good day. Ben & Jim worked on their tobacco land all day. Josie scrubed floors and got dinner. Kate Harvey & Carrie Smith come to see us this evening. I was not at home. Reese Smith carried Grace Brumfield and I to Mr Worshams pond. We fished. Caught a few. Had a pleasant day. Come by Renan. Clack Hubbards baby was sick. Dr Owen was gone to Chatham.

Ben did not like for Henry to go with me. Said he wanted him to work. I am sorry to ever do any thing that makes him mad. An old hen killed one of Josies turkeys. I am very sorry that it happen.
