Fair and warm. David working around the house. Mother had a poor night, and Doctor told us this morning that the end was near, so we have had a sad day watching our loved one struggling in the deep waters. David wrote to Jessie, May, and Hamish. May came by last train.
Joseph's nephew, Carl, worked with my father at Simonds in Fitchburg. He had a pretty daughter, Barabara, who became a nurse and married a man from Tennessee.
