stay out there now she had found a warm place. Lottie Crane hailed me as I came by + wanted to know how the folks were. I could feel the heat coming out of the house as she was talking to me. so I judged she had her heat on full blast. We run our heat just to warm up the house, + the kitchen + sun do the rest, thats one good thing about the oil heater, you dont have to waste heat running it when you dont need it. Pa is ciphering all his spare time he is quiet to day. Yesterday he raved all day long but had a good nights rest. Leonard has just been here to tell Pa that every thing is coming out fine + he will have only some two or three papers to sign now after the court appearance + Pa says let it be done soon for his mind is going fast now.  Ring came in after Leonard went out but no bad effect were caused therein.
