>Stayed home and worked like sixty all day. Cut sweet potato tops off.
>Rained last night & this morning; a cold unpleasant rain. A card from
Hallie
>this A.M. stating that she & Russell got home all "OK."

>My comments:
>Not much to comment on today. The good doctor, once before, wrote about
>something as "like sixty." My thought is that "like sixty" means very
fast.
>"A mile a minute" (same thing) is also an old common expression. In those
>days, for what few automobiles existed, it was an impossible speed.
