Anna Parker called to
see us. I did not see her,
but after tea I walked down
to "Bloomfield" & had a pleasant
call. Wrote to Charley
about Nick Johnson's "S.C. Kock
& mailed the letter.
Jehu Bowen's people sent up
for me & I rode down and
prescribed for his daughter
"Ruth Anna" about "dark".
I slept little or none last
night, Harriet having a very
bad cold coughed almost
all through the night, and
I was extremely anxious
about her.
