Monday, January 25, 1868

This has been a nice day, but very cold in the morning. I feel some better to night. I have set up all day to day. Maria and Melia went down town this afternoon. Maria went back to day. She bought her a new dress to day. It was [a] shilling per yard. Old Mr. Wilder died this morning at 7 o’clock. Is to be buried to morrow.


Niece Notes: This is the last entry in the journal itself. After she ran out of space, Celia used ordinary sheets of paper to record her entries and packed them in the pockets in the back of her journal.
