Dec. 21st
Friday attend a party at Mr. Goodloe's which was very pleasant. Have several acquaintances among the
gentlemen and make some new ones. Dance some but did not enjoy it as the music was so bad. The supper very
nice. Tom sets a story on me about a glass eye. Thinks I'm taken. He loses his black beaver. What a laugh we
get on him for supplying the country with beaver hats. Get back after one o'clock after a pleasant evening.
Saturday morning call on Kate. Find her in bed. Messers Price and Roberts call in the evening and the latter
gives Sally a lecture on the classics. We are much edified. Mr. Whitehead to
tea. We are entertained by a G-a-li-thr-omp [sic] tonight.
