December 30, 1897

Found 2 in. snow in the morning. Weather was nice and warm. Received a letter from Mamie Conors and wrote to Martha. Exchanged Books in the library. Lost 2 hours work with setting up the new stove. Dont know yet if it will be any better. Mr Lee took the old stove in part of payment. I hope this to be the last night that I am alone. Ate nudles.
