From Anna and Wilmer Murray’s Journal

Wednesday March 5, 1980


Nice day, but it clouded up at evening. I washed this morning and hung out the clothes. We were going to rake but Dad said it is too cold. About eleven I called Fred to go with us to Roosevelt. He is really tired. He works to hard in the yard. We shopped for cloth and bats as Penny’s were having a Sale. When we got home I sewed and pressed the star quilt. It is all ready to be marked. Neil came to stay with us. After supper the phone rang. It was Jerry. They have a baby girl and all is well. He said the little quilt is in Customs yet. He has a job in San Francisco when he comes home. We called LaVora, she was asleep, we had a nice chat. Then we called the Darrell’s. Neil called Ella and then we called the Dewey’s. Everyone was pleased about the new addition to the Murray Clan.
