This is a cold stormy day. I was doing chores to day. We cleaned up some oats to day.  Net Rutherford is here this forenoon. She went away to the funeral this afternoon. Mrs. Forrest was Burryed to day. The folks were all down to the funeral to day. It is snowing from the Southeast to day. Bovina.
Bill is home to night. This winter is noted for being a very cold winter. 
One year ago to day I saw Frank Gowanlock.  He was in here a year ago to day. Bovina.
