Thursday, August 20, 1874. Hot weather We need rain very much. Mother & Della went visiting Busy all day re-versing a prose article & took a ride after supper.

Friday, 21 Hot weather. But which is relieved at night by heavy showers. - God is good. Wrote a letter. The out? lines of another little poem comes to me to-day.

Saturday, 23 Wet weather. Not pleasant after the storm. Copied two old poems & wrote my new effort - "How Herod? is Answered" Went to bed tired of the very thought of writing.
