User-Contributed Transcription There is still a great-deal of that snow drift left outside and in their yard. I noticed today that the little pickets that belong on the lower edge of the roof are down. If we had only noticed it when you were home - perhaps I can fix it. We are having very pleasant weather now and it seems very nice to see the snow go so quickly and the birds in every nook and corner picking up after the snow - John Williams had just been in - you remember when he came to collect for the Bible Society - I gave him five half dollars which you had got in exchange when you paid for your rubbers. the other half dollar I kept and I sent it with Mr. Prichard to buy feed for our hens. It was plugged and he could not pass it so he brought it home and I took it down to David Jones. He remembered your buying the rubbers of him and his giving you several half dollars in change out of a $5 bill and he gave me good money instead because I said I had no other change in my purse besides what you had given me. You will please be careful again when you have any money changed to look at what you take. I told John William and requested him to look at what I had given him and he came tonight to say they are all right.
