Friday. Windy and cloudy. Cornelius was confined to his bed
but seemed cheerful, and amused himself as quietly
and as pleasantly as he could. Little kitty was quite
a companion to him. Caroline intended going to
Brooklyn to-day but felt felt too unwell to do so and
after a few ineffectual attempts to get ready she
gave up and went to bed. Evening - Harriet and I
attended prayer-meeting at Mr Hudson's. Henry
accompanied me home. He seemed to be willing
to talk with me on the subject of religion but tried
to appear indifferent about it. I do not think he really
is however.
Saturday. Pleasant. Sat in Millie's room most of the morn-
ing and with cousin Ann Eliza Nevina, and to Anna
[McCutchen?]. Carrie was very busy all day in making
her preparations for leaving. She called on May Willet
soon after dinner and found her sister Mrs Armstrong
very low. Mary Reeve made a long call.
Margaret Culbert also called. Rev Thos. Beacher took
tea with us. He is very entertaining.
Cornelius had a severe turn of bleeding at the nose.
Sunday. Bright and chilly. Attended our church in the morn-
ing. The Reverend Mr Evans preached on "Time."
Spent the afternoon at home. In the evening attended
Mr Beecher's church with Mr Hudson. Joseph [Wilde?]
and Mary R. sat with us. - He - [illegible] feelings on the subject of
religion seem to have undergone some change.

Carrie left us about four
o'clock. She intends spending
several weeks with Aunt [illegible?]
and Mary Jane.

Transcription Conventions

Spelling: Maintain original spelling (including u/v, i/j, and ff). Long "s" should be replaced with a regular "s". Terminal long "i" characters are transcribed as "i" not "j".
Hyphenation: Preserve hyphens (including "=" characters) at the ends of lines.
Capitalization: Maintain original
Punctuation: Add modern periods, but don't add punctuation like commas and apostrophes.
Deletions: Deleted characters and words are tagged with "strike" and then displayed with the line through them.
Symbols: For apothecary and alchemical symbols, use these symbols followed by the meaning of the symbol in brackets: Rx [recipe]; ℈ [scruple]; ʒ [dram]; ʒs [half dram]; ℥ [ounce]; ℥s [half ounce]; ℔ [pound].
For roman numerals following symbols that indicate amount, i.e., j=1, ij=2, iij= 3, v=5, type arabic numeral in brackets following roman numeral: i [1], ii [2], iii [3], v [5].
Line Breaks: Hit return once after each line ends. Two returns indicate a new paragraph, which is usually indentation following the preceding sentence in the original. The times at the end of each entry should get their own paragraph, since the software does not support indentation in the transcriptions.
Illegible text: Indicate illegible readings in single square brackets: [Dr?]
A single newline indicates a line-break in the original document, and will not appear as a break in the text in some views or exports. Two newlines indicate a paragraph, and will appear as a paragraph break in all views.
