March 28-April 3
Very good but twice told sermon from Mr. Meade. Read The Little Pilgrim and The Giant Killer or The Battle
That All Must Fight. Books rather of the juvenile order but very interesting. Also Ryles' Living or Dead. On
Wednesday have Mr. Wm. M. Nelson preach ....Cousin Ann Dotson and Isabella Leitch to dine with us. The
last of the week, Sue and I go in to spend a few days with cousin Lou. I stay one night with Sister Betty. Have
Betty Lewis to keep me company. The baby's name has not quite been agreed on; we think of Charles
Augustine Lewis. Miss Betty L. has the naming of him. Preaching going on in our church. On Thursday Mr.
Nelson gave us an extravagant address suitable for the occasion [and again on] Saturday ....
