We had a Christmas of the oln fashioned 3ort yesterday, a hea"y snow falling all day and by evening a gale with a cold wave which sent the thermometer to minus ten this morning. My -ife's sister, Mrs. havidson;and her family dined with us and we spent a jolly day indoors. The children however, are getting so big now that one misses a great deal of the eCeltic joy of Christmas, but the quiet pleasures never pall.

TrTe are getting ready to build a house , in fact I have the plans and specifications now on my table at home. ' e expect to break ground as early in the spring as the weather permits.
