First draft

6 below zero.
Not busy at mill
John away in P.M.
Sara Uhler here after supper
Mom, Dad & kids came up & stayed & visited a while.
Still cold & getting colder.

Commentary

We have seen clues before that Herman sometimes wrote journal entries well after the day in question. In this case, he actually took notes for the journal entry for the first week of January 1940 in the "Memoranda" section of the 1939 journal. The 1940 journal has fleshed out versions from these notes which are presented as the "final draft."
