March, Friday 18, 1864<\/p>\n
One of the loveliest days I ever spent, bright and beautiful. I have been very buisy braiding my dress. finished 1 1\/2 yd. it is very fascinating work, and with my natural abhorance of sewing I think this particular kind would give me much pleasure, if it were not for my miserable old spine. I am suffering intensely tonight from my hard days work. I fixed Mr. Noe’s grave this evening, it is a lovely spot but oh! so sad, my heart aches when I think of his long suffering, and so young, taken from his poor widowed Mother. Oh! God drive those miserable wretches from our Sunny land, and give us freedom and peace. I have been alone today except Laura sewing. Tate came twice to sew on the machine\u2014Joanna & Anna Wilson went to town this morning, got back safe, no late news. Mr. Wallace, Henry Wilson & friend were here to Tea. I came to my room very early\u2014heard Bettie’s & Laura’s lessons. Beulah and Tippie Dora both here\u2014read myself to sleep\u2014<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
