March, Saturday 19, 1864<\/p>\n
Today has been just as gloomy as yesterday was bright\u2014cold, windy & cloudy. Helen & Nannie had a general cleaning up in the house. Laura was unusually particular about my room, kept me waiting until dinner time to get to my sewing. I made up for lost time, finished one width of braiding, and drew the rest of the pattern off. I don’t know what I shall do, if I am to spend so much of my time alone\u2014no companion except my sewing, which is almost too much food for a mind in the present state of my own\u2014however, tis all for the best, God’s will, not mine be done.<\/p>\n
Tate & Anna Nelson went to town this morning, got back safe. Mr. Eyrich sent me a nice lot of papers, Tate brought me a letter, as usual not my own, from Capt. Hoenstein to his wife in Mobile. No late news.<\/p>\n
Laura & Bettie recited a very good lesson tonight\u2014everything in my room statu quo<\/em>. Anna Wilson did not come, went with Helen & Nannie upstairs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" March, Saturday 19, 1864 Today has been just as gloomy as yesterday was bright\u2014cold, windy & cloudy.
