Yes, indeed.
"Now, my sister-in-law, Jane Lanfear, works harder Sundays than any day out of the seven.

They take a place with thirty cows on it, and she and Jim, bein' ambitious, do almost all the work themselves.
"Every Sunday mornin' Jane gets up, and she and Jim goes out and milks fifteen cows apiece, and then Jim drives them off to pasture and comes back and harnesses up and carries the milk three miles to a cheese factory, and comes back and does the other out-door chores.
"And Jane gets breakfast, and gets up the three little children, and washes 'em and dresses 'em, and feeds the little ones to the table.

And after breakfast she does up all her work, washes her dishes and the immense milk-cans, sweeps, cleans lamps and stoves, makes beds, etcetry, and feeds the chickens, and ducks, and turkeys.

Then she hurries round and washes and combs the three children, curls the hair of the twin girls, and then gets herself into her best clothes, and by that time she is so beat out that she is ready to drop down.
"But she don't; she lifts the children into the democrat, climbs her own weary form in after 'em, and takes the youngest one in her lap.
