Six o'clock
During the blizzard also I drew up in black and white a programme for each day which I decided I must follow out when the weather became better ; though I had lived up to most of it from the first . Thus it was : Five o'clock -- Get up , start fire in hotel and make cup of coffee . Five-thirty -- Inspect fires in bank and three stores . Six o'clock -- Feed horses and cow and chickens , and milk cow . Six-thirty -- Get breakfast for self and Kaiser and Pawsy -LRB- which included washing the dishes , a hard job -RRB- . Seven-thirty -- Inspect depot fire and climb windmill tower and look over country with glass . Eight o'clock -- Finish work at barn ; and for two hours such miscellaneous work as might be doing , as tunnels or other fortifications .
