March, Monday 14, 1864<\/p>\n
I have had a miserable cold, and not fit for society\u2014yet we have been delighted by the visit of a Rebel Major, Maj. Allen, who spent the day with us. I tried to braid on my dress, only a little while, my spine pained me teribly . Maj. A. went down to Col. Perkins to stay until Thursday, when I will have returned from Memphis\u2014having attended to his wants. Mr. Wilson and Harbut came this evening. Mr. Harbut has brought him a new horse\u00a0 very pretty one. Poor Anna, I think Mr. Wilson ought to give her rest\u2014they staid right late, we had a pleasant evening\u2014music, conversation, &c. Anna Nelson and I have made our arrangements to go into Memphis tomorrow and not return till next day. Oh! Lord, deliver me from getting in any trouble with the Yanks, this will be a hard trip, I have a great risk to run. No Beulah tonight, I think she has forsaken her post. Laura and Tip both here nodding. I feel like I had been stewed\u2014oh! God, protect, guide and make me a good girl.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
