Rainy in the morning, cleared up after diner. I went to work. Received a letter from mama. Martha came to the shop at about 1/2 past 2 o’clock. Paid Mrs. Brown $2.00. Tried to pay Mr. Dewey for moving, but didn’t find anybody at home. Went shopping with Martha. Ordered some furniture and bought Beer, Meat & Groceries. Layed the Carpet in the parlor and got up the Lace Curtains and did other little things. Ordered and received 1 doz. Lager. Spent the Rest of the Evening reading. Had sour Potatoes for diner. Our new home looks pleasant now and will be still better in a few days.
