"Staid in the house and read part of the afternoon. We received a large jar of butter from Mr. Smith and we were very glad to get it as we have been using store butter. We received a telegram from Decatur announcing the death of cousin Emma . I went right down to the church to tell Mama and then over to Mrs. Hances to tell Aunt Sarah . Went down to the train to meet Papa as he came from Fridley. Auntie could not get off this eve to attend the funeral, as she hoped. "
