We have followed Cate through her life of trials and tribulations, happy events, and sad ones, since her first diary was written in 1863 when she was twenty-two years old. She kept a record of everything that happened to herself, her family and friends, her constant cooking, housework, moves they made, trip they took, marriages, births, and deaths. Her life was the oxcart, whale oil lamps, and the horsedrawn carriage.


Cate's life is different in Milford, no longer living on the farm, with Zaph gone all the time. After many moves, they eventually settled into the Gilson house along the Souhegan River, where Cate keeps track of the rising water at the stone bridge. New inventions are now coming along, and grandchildren are visiting, still as her family grows, there is the neverending cooking, cleaning, and Monday wash day as she takes care of four grown men.


Cate still finds time to write of the day's happenings in her beloved diary no matter how tired she is at night. Join Cate as she continues on with her life from 1885 to 1899 and her faith in God that sustains her through this arduous journey. All of this work is beginning to take its toll on her life, that when she was young seemed like child's play.

The prayer meeting is a barometer of how the Church is doing.
-Assistant Pastor Bob Sundstrom, Burns Hill Christian Fellowship, Milford, New Hampshire
