November 23, 1898

Baby is two months old to day and is feeling first class. I stayed at home this morning to give Martha a chance to go to Springfield. She left with the 9.30 and came back with the 1.05. Met Mama & Papa in Springfield and bought a few things. I tented to Baby, did the house work and sewed a few books. Baby behaved himself fine. Received a letter from Auntie and a postal from Lynn Publ. Library. The weather was cloudy but warm. I went in the shop at 1.30 and did a few little things. Sewed a few books in the evening while Martha does a little washing & ironing & makes preparations for Thanksgiving diner.
