Papa got corn farthen from Uncle Freds this morn. we are baking bread, cooking catsup, & baking cakes, coffee cakes. It is raining, this evening. Uncle Fred & Aunt Mary came up for Phil Braun’s dance, open air floor dance, they put a tarpolian [sic – tarpaulin] over it & fixed it so no one could go in without paying 25¢, & couldn’t see from the outside because he had it between buildings. Papa & Rosalia went out to Henry’s. got oats. Henry Jackson was there & said that he had bought a horse. Ed Schinder is plowing.
