Cold N.W. wind, cloudy and snow a little at times all day. We all got up late, in fact was nearly noon when the work was finished so Louise & I made cake and fudge and the men, Will and William, ate it but we had our share. William cut Louise’s hair in p.m. and we all then played cards as it was too cold for Louise to go to Tom’s to teach catechism.
