Papa and I put a bin in
the cellar for the turnips
in the afternoon Mamma
Papa and I pulled turnips
and toped them then we
sacked them then I hauled
them in to the cellar
and dumped them in the
bin. Today was nice.

Didn't get out of bed all day. Watt did everything for me. Not a lot of fun for Watt. I couldn't even lift my head. Not even enough presence of mind to fret. At times my breathing sounded like Marian's did near the end. All I could do was lie there and listen.
