Description
This page is incorrectly labeled as number 178 - the correct page number is 177. The following is taken from a transcription of Martha Baldwin’s diary (1858-1859). Illegible sections of the original text are noted as follows: ______. A parenthetical question mark (?) follows words in the original text that were not completely legible but were still transcribed. that Father has failed since last fall but he is very well for him now. Eva has grown so much. This evening Will and I went up to see Gus. They are seeming quite cheerful but it seems so strange to see them all dressed in black and the father not there. Mack and Em have moved and it looks very lonely over there. March 13. Went over to Uncle Franks today. He is better but quite sick yet. Saw Jane who is as ____ as ever. Mary Baldwin, Almira Turrey and Almira Wooley called while I was there. Will and Eva and I went and took a walk.
