These are transcriptions of my grandmother's journals and writings from different points in her life from her girlhood diaries in Kansas in the early 1900's to her later years.
Saturday, March 26, 1910
I got an Easter postal from Harriet W. of Preston. Papa, Zella & I planted "taters" to-day. Papa used Uncle Ralph's team. Lawrence was up all day and for dinner. Bernice "took to the woods" to-day on a picnic. Zella went to town this afternoon and to the rink to-night. Zella, Baby & I went with Papa when he took the team back to Uncle Ralph's. Papa went to town first tho'. Bernice Georgia & I went to town to-night for our new Easter hats.
Weather -- fair & hot.
[Clipping is from the Burlingame Enterprise, March 3, 1910. I wonder what Granny's hat looked like -- and if she got it from Miss N. Jackson! --kp]
