Sun.  Cold.

We went over to Reba's awhile.  Edith & Roy come in late.  Snowed some tonite. 



Footnote:  Reba is her sister-in-law and I am guessing that she was still living in Olinger - a small village about 7-8 miles from Deep Springs.  The town was built near the river and I think the railroad went thru the area.    Reba Ely married Tom Reasor  (Oh, I think that was his last name).  They owned and managed a grocery store.  The only store there that I remember.  They may have had gas pumps too, but I can't remember that for sure.  I remember the building was built of wood and there was a big wooden front porch with no roof on the porch.  I don't remember there being chairs on the porch, but I imagine there was.   They never had any children of their own but did raise Hattie Francis Ely.  She was Reba's niece.    Hattie Francis lives in Kingsport, Tenn.
