[[blank]] [[end page]] [[start page]] [line] Wednesday Dec 25.1867 [line] Morning. Send Johnnie out to shoot a partridge which he succeeds in doing. Get up a Christmas dinner of baked reindeer meat. soup of young white fish, cranberry pie and ginger bread + tea. make the pies + bread myself, and they turn out pretty well. Have Ivan + Yagor in to dinner- Russians all drunk in the evening. Get up in the middle of the night to look at Ivan who has fallen + hurt himself, but not seriously. I wonder what they are doing at home in this pleasant season. It is very lonely here with only an Indian + a half breed boy for company, but I can't bring myself to associate with the Russians they are such a despicable set of mean devils.
