Monday, March 22nd. Very pleasant. H Hudson spent the after-
noon with me - very pleasantly. His mind is ill at
ease and I told him that I hoped it would remain so
till he found rest at the feed of the Saviour.
He said he would try. I gave him a tract last evening
and marked a few chapters in the New Testament which
I wished him to read. He did so and I hope it has done
him good. He also had quite a long talk about J-
Henry, met him on Saturday evening and demanded an
explanation of him. J- was obliged to apologise but he
did one thing that he was not obliged to; he denied
all the charges brought against him, also his dishonourable
conduct towards me, his showing my letters etc, which
both H- and I know and can prove to be true.
He probably feared that a quarrel would ensue should
he acknowledge the truth, but it seems to me in that
case I had rather fight it out, than lie it out.
He still insisted that I had wronged him, but paid
me a very great compliment in Henry's estimation by
saying that he had known a great many young ladies
but that I had very few equals. I think it quite
too late in the day for compliments now.
In the evening received a note from Carrie, by Nathaniel
who called on her this morning. Hugh Dickinson was
over last evening to accompany her to church, but arrived
too late. She had gone with cousin Rufus.

In the morning I went out and did considerable shopping. I then called
on Mary Willet as cousin Leigh told me last evening that Mrs Armstrong was
in a dying state. I saw Mary and found her overwhelmed with grief and quite inconsolable
but her thoughts were turning heavenward.
