December 12, 1931

Mr. and Mrs. Jno Korting and myself were to Mary Lehman’s funeral. We had so many clothes on we could hardly pack them. It was cold going 20 miles to Helena.

Rob O’Connell was up to hear Christie’s R.C.A. radio. Markie Ledbetter[1. I believe she is referring to George Marcus Ledbetter, son of David Ledbetter and Edith (Schenk) Ledbetter. Edith was a sister to Mary’s first husband, George Schenk.] sang over K.F.B.B., Gt. Falls, a bunch of “Love Letters.” They are now playing “Kiss me Good-Nite.” He’s a cousin to Christie Schenck. Pallbearers for Mrs. M. Lehman were Dan Derosier, August Summers, Morgan Langon, Mike Touy, Will Fletcher, Geo. Kockler.
