Sept. 8
The girls leave us. We go as far as town with them and call at Dr. [James A.] Leitch's where we are introduced to a very pretty young lady, Miss Lelia Carter. It is rather lonely at home after so much company. We parted with the expectation of meeting at Christmas, if all is well, at Locust Hill, but three months is a long time to look forward to in the life of "chance and change;" however, we hope for the best. Lizzie Dee and Robert [Lewis] have been with us since the lst of Sept.
