I finished cleaning the hall & put down the carpet so over Sunday there will be two good clean rooms that one need not feal [[feel]] if any one comes upon me unexpected.

Pa helped me to tack the carpet but he makes me ready to fly he gets us both nervous.

Harris came up again to shave him, to day. I hope he will stick by him to the last.

Pa would not say much about the picture, but he says that he cant [[can't]] make any of them look very natural. he has not mind enough to really know, dont [[don't]] expect too much of him as he takes but little interest in any thing around him. & gets worried at nothing.

Pa has gone up stairs to lie down after supper so I will take the time to go down to the corner box with this letter before dark. a letter from Lena I am sending along also. Ma
