Dec. 9-15
Sunday hear Mr. Meade preach....Sam with us as usual. Cousin Sarah Gilmer and Cousin Lucy Ann Minor dine with us, an unusual procedure for cousin Sarah as she so rarely leaves her home after winter sets in. Sue sends word she will perhaps be up this week. John cannot come until Christamas week. Cousin Sarah [Gilmer] brings me a sweet book .... Wednesday Ma, Nan, Maggie and I dine at Orange Dale and have such a quiet happy day ....Find a letter on my return from Sue telling us she will be up on Friday next ....Get through with Miss Jameson's four volumes; enjoyed it much. Friday Sue and her maid Emily appear. We are so glad to have Sue with us. She is in fine spirits. Saturday we have a heavy fall of snow. David spends the day with me in The Lodge. I'm busy with the block work. Sam to supper. Rather an uncomfortable evening in consequence of unfriendly feelings between Sam and David. At least the unkind feeling and treatment is all confined to David. Sam does not know what it means.
