Mon., 1/13 Received most interesting letter from Belgian soldier by first mail. Made a meat and potato pie for supper. Called on Mrs. Ward for a minute. Went to school. Learned the art of making mustard and linseed plasters. Beautiful night with bright moon.
Tues., 1/14 Usual work for morning. Elizabeth and Eleanor came for lunch. Went for a walk in afternoon. Lovely day. And went to movie by my lonesome in evening after calling to inquire about Mrs. Lewis. Wrote a letter and went to bed.
This Mrs. Lewis must have been a friend or neighbor. Her Aunt Mary Ann Lewis lived in Pittsburgh. Her husband may have been a sibling or cousin of Samuel Lewis.
