Here is the daily entry for Thursday, April 7:
Colder than the Dickens. An awful wind. Had to burn icy wood. Had a time
trying to keep warm. Stuffed the north kitchen windows. Bro't

blocked.
My comments: Cold April snow storm. Wow! I shiver just reading this. Burning icy wood in the stove not nice!

Having burn icy wood, I can almost feel the chill. Web wood sizzles, and produces more smoke than heat.
