May, Saturday 28, 1864<\/p>\n
Sister Mary and I arrived at Mrs. Armstrong’s quite late\u2014they went on in town, I drove over to Mrs. Clayton’s and spent the day. Hal is not ready to start yet, so it is doubtful whether or not we leave Monday morning. Maggie Cockrell was there, we spent a very pleasant day\u2014I got back to Mrs. Armstrong’s quite late, found Sister Mary impatiently waiting. Mrs. A’s kindness I shall never forget\u2014she bought all my things, and brought them through the lines, they are all just as nice and pretty as can be. I left my bundle with the dress in it, when we started, so that will make another trip tomorrow, which I hope Nannie and Helen will take for me. Father gave me a deed to Laura this evening, I am grieved to leave her, exposed to so many temptations, but hope the principal I have always endeavored to instill may save her. My room is all confusion, trunk not packed\u2014every thing scattered.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
