[Tuesday] September the 12 [1815]
I was carding and spinning all
the morning by myself. --And Eliza has had
a
large wash of two pair of stockings. In the afternoon Mama and the
girls came up in the spinning room with me. Eliza and Charlotte sewed and
Mama helped me spin. -- After our work was over, we went to the barn and
had a swing and a romp in the hay. -- Mama was to go to town today, but
the rain prevented her. -- There was to be some
fireworks performed tonight; but the rain, I suppose, will put a stop
to it. |
