"Mr. Monroe left for the South yesterday evening and so Mrs. Monroe did not give us our music lessons until today. Went down town to buy a stove pipe damper for our little wood stove. Went to the grocery on some errands. Played a long game of checkers with Nellie just before supper. It has been as cold and raw as ever today and though the thermometer has been near freezing we have burned considerable coal in keeping the house comfortable. We hope for warmer weather soon."
