Mon Decr 14
Shepherded all ewes - draining + logging up in swamp in Cow p[addock]. Cut some white pine strainers. Rode to Levin after work + made arrangements with shearers to start my ewes next Thursday, weather permitting. Light fall of snow on ranges - very cold night. Letter from Maud with news of Gertie's illness, chicken pox. I replied I would come up at Xmas so long as she did not get it.
