Monday, January 27, 1868 - "It did not amount to Shucks."

This is a fair winter day. I snowed this afternoon. I was drawing wood this forenoon. Frank Scott came here this afternoon. He stayed all night. Thare was Singing School over on the Turnpike to night. The girls and I went over to it. It did not amount to Shucks. Thare was a crowd over from Brushland.
Frank & Nancy Coulter*, Andrew Thompson, Dewit Thompson**, Ann Scott, Archy Phyfe, Mary Doig, Jim Hamilton and others were at the S.S. tonight.
*This might be siblings Frank (1842-1907) and Nancy (1847-1924), children of David and Margaret Coulter.
**Dewitt Thomson (b 1848) was the son of John R. and Helen Thomson.  He married Mary Aitkin in 1876.
