They are coming with the snow plow now to get us broken out before meeting time. Pa is arguing for me to go out to the back house to help him shit. I don't know what things are coming to these times, he thinks he cant do anything, he is scart [[scared]] to death of everything now, & begs me to take the money out of that table to save it from burning up. I hope you enjoyed your company & the baby behaved well, glad to hear that Mrs Cuttings hind leg is better.

I thought the dress she would like, let her wear it every time she goes off so she can have the good of it
