I rode down to Clarkdale with Mrs. Hodges & went to Mable's. The faucets in the washroom were frozen and I had to carry water from the kitchen to start the washing. I dried all the clothes and ironed on the heater. The clothes I hung out froze as soon as I hung them on the line. I went over to the Drug Store and got a bus ticket, then Mrs. Hodges came by and I rode up the hill with her. Every one has been coming here for water all day.
