Wednesday, October 4, 1865. This is a lovely moonlight night. O how different from this night one year ago Cold & dark, but darker within, for Ortus was dying. Mrs W- left us today. Then Manda and I made some calls, & came home sad and tired. Evening learned something that pleased me much. Went to prayer meeting & enjoyed a precious season. Letters from Tishie & Mrs Darwin.
