Tuesday, January 28, 1868

Tuesday. Not a very pleasant day it seemed all the forenoon but it was warmer in the afternoon. Pa started for Holly this morning at 8 o’clock. I have time to work on my apron. This evening Bill went to see Mrs. MaCain to get some medicine for his wrist, [which is] not very well. Went to bed at 9. Wrote this morning at ½ past 6 o’clock.

***

Niece notes: Holly is a nearby town. Bill is the younger of Celia's older brothers. Mrs. MaCain is a woman downtown who knows all sorts of herbs and medicines.
