July, Monday 18, 1864<\/p>\n
I was very unhappy about no conveyance to go out to Bro’s, sitting in the Parlor after breakfast, when our new made friend Mrs. Reynolds came in for Hal, Therese and myself to go out and spend a few days with her\u2014I accepted, Hal, after we came to our room, did not seem to like it, though I had no idea of anything of the kind when in Mrs. R. company. Tate and Nannie both seemed distressed at Hal’s departure\u2014censured me for accepting the invitation. I can have no happiness, it seems, without so much unhappiness.<\/p>\n
We arrived at Col. Young’s about 11 o’c. Miss Lou, who is one of the sweetest ladies I ever met, Miss Paine and Col. Young greeted us cordially, and a happy day the rest was to me, Late in the evening we all went down to the Pond, went in bathing, and had a gay time, though some redicilous scenes among the beginers . Therese has more confidence than Hal or I, therefore gets along better. I must confess I am really a coward in Water\u2014<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
